GLC Multimedia package

Hi,

I am considering a GLC that unfortunately doesn't come with a Multimedia Package. Other than the 5 things listed in the website (COMAND hard-drive navigation, In-dash SD card reader, SiriusXM, Voice control, navigation map updates for 3 years), are there any other features that won't work without the Multimedia Package? Would mBrace Connect (remote start, remote lock/unlock, etc) work?
Thanks.

Larger glass 8.4" Screen
Voice Comand does so much more and makes life easier
Yes, mBrace will work without Comand

It's an option you can't add after the fact and frankly one I wouldn't skip, but that's me.

I agree - would not skip both for the larger screen and the functionality it brings. Well worth the extra $$$. I took this and skipped on the speakers which I will not do next time.

Good for you. You won't be disappointed. Voice Comand is awesome and so much improved over the Comand I had in my 2012 E350. I hardly ever use any of the buttons in the car, except the voice button on my steering wheel. Push the button and tell the car to call a contact. Push the button and say Navigation or Radio. You can do almost everything by speaking what you want!
