"Mercedes Collaborates with Will.i.am to Transform EVs into Interactive Musical Instruments"

Mercedes-Benz and Will.I.Am have collaborated to create MBUX Sound Drive, a technology that turns vehicle inputs and in-car signals into musical expressions, effectively turning the car into a "virtual musical instrument." The system reacts to driving behavior and interprets it into tunes and ditties, with the aim of enhancing the driving experience. It will be available on all Mercedes-Benz and Mercedes-AMG vehicles with the second-generation MBUX system in the second half of 2024, and will also be available to existing drivers with compatible infotainment via an over-the-air update.

"Mercedes-Benz Collaborates with Will.i.am to Revolutionize In-Car Music Experience"

Mercedes-AMG has collaborated with musician Will.i.am to create MBUX Sound Drive, an "interactive musical experience" for its cars that links music to driving using sensors and software. The feature, available in mid-2024 for Mercedes-AMG and Mercedes-Benz vehicles with the second generation of the MBUX system, allows drivers to pair musical tracks with driving functions like recuperation, acceleration, steering, and braking, creating an "orchestra" within the car. The company envisions various driving scenarios matched with appropriate music, and plans to open the platform for musicians worldwide to create their own driving soundscapes.
