Not sure what Becker Map Pilot is, but Navigation is an option, most US models have it as they come fairly loaded, but world models are less likely.

There was a post about an android/apple module that referenced this option. I did research and found that the only cars that have the "Becker Cradle" are MBs that did not have navigation standard, and this is like a cartridge you can plug in to get a really basic navigation feature enabled on your standard COMMAND. If your car is US-Spec (and maybe even NA spec), then you should have MB navigation by default. If you have a lower level of COMMAND that does not have that, having the cradle in your glovebox gives you the option to buy their cartridge and implement a much more basic version of Nav.
