I recently asked my car about the acronym used for a specific analyte from a blood test panel. It not only pointed out that I misstated the acronym, but gave me very thorough information on the purpose of the test, analytical method, interpretation of results, and possible medical conditions associated with out-of-range values. Then it told me to get my affairs in order.

More Educational uses

Another quick road trip up to Paso Robles for wine Drove back on the scenic route 101 or the PCH which is incredible btw
anyway, we saw an island and asked Mercedes about it and got a decent 60 second response detailing history
asked about the size/population differences between San Diego and LA counties, great response including geographic, population and GDP data
Also found the best twisty road and had a lot of fun in Sport + mode which I haven't used a ton

For some reason mine doesn't like to tell jokes, I remember asking about those back in the MBUX 1.0 days but in the W214, every time I ask things like those she just say "Pardon?" I have a native tongue so it is unlikely an accent issue. I am in Canada though so that might be why.

On a new car, it may take time for all the voice features to work. Mine didn't tell jokes initially either.

At least it has been my experience to have "online voice" you need to have a MB connect account and have it paired with the car. This is based on he deliveries I have done at the dealership I work at. And of course online voice must be active under system.

Yup that is activated it shows. I also turned on access protection so I know if I use my fingerprint I am logged on, and not default to the guest profile.
