As yet another small preview of the new C-Class W205 - which will be officially introduced to the public at the upcoming North American International Auto Show in Detroit – Mercedes-Benz will bring the new model to life as an augmented reality app for visitors of the 2014 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, Nevada.
On top of that, the three-pointed star will also showcase its latest innovative technologies which are either in development or have already been introduced.

“Everyone is talking about autonomous driving functions - we already have them in series production. Many people want to use the latest communications capabilities in their car – for us, this has long been reality with “digital drive style”, be it with COMAND Online or via the Digital DriveStyle app,” says Prof. Dr. Thomas Weber, Management Board Member of Daimler AG responsible for Group Research and Mercedes-Benz Cars Development. “Mercedes-Benz vehicles offer the highest possible levels of safety with maximum comfort. They are intelligently connected and well on the way to becoming digital, automotive companions.”

Visitors at the 2014 CES will also be able to test the Digital DriveStyle app complete with car-to-x technology or wearable devices like Google Glass or the Pebble smart watch, both integrated into Mercedes-Benz vehicle telematics.
