I don't see anything in the menus about it, unless I'm looking in the wrong place. I do have the voice button on the steering wheel and I can use some voice commands on that ...

Actually, it can be retrofitted just that the cost might not be worth it and it is a third party retrofit using OEM parts. You also get MBUX replacing COMAND so maybe it is worth it or maybe not.
