LOCATION OF Navigation SD Slot for a Mercedes Benz GLC 350e 2020

Can someone please indicate where is the SD slot for navigation on a Mercedes-Benz 350 E 2020. I have looked all around the Consol and dashboard and cannot find the slot.

Thank you

Thank you foe the information..

I was under the impression that buying an online software that can be downloaded into the infotainment system would allow me to utilize the navigation system. I do have Apple CarPlay I guess I’ll continue to use either Google maps or Waze.

If the car isn't "prewired" for Nav, it won't have the slot and won't work.

The 2020 models are different, they don't have an SD slot no matter what state the nav is in. If you have nav then map updates are done over the air or via USB, not SD card.

Pre facelift that's correct as I understand it. But it's not possible with the facelift cars.

Agreed. The manual indicated the software update can be via Internet for Navigation map, system updates, Digital Operator's Manual. Or, via the external medium USB flash drive for Navigation maps.
