2020 NFC option

I noticed an option for Inductive wireless charging and NFC pairing for $200. Sounds like a decent add but my question was does this allow WIRELESS Carplay and Android auto or simply another means of connecting your phone to your GLC for contacts, music only. I would like to use my google maps through NFC pairing if this option allows it.

Thanks

I don’t think they have wireless car play at the moment. I believe it’s only wireless charging and Bluetooth pairing through nfc. Maybe wireless CarPlay will be added in a future update.

Wireless Android Auto or Car Play is not an option on any MB model right now.

Thank you! Not a bad option for $200 but most of the time I'll be using bluetooth or USB.

I will use android auto in our new GLC43 easy enough to plug in a usb-c cable. The wireless charging will be nice when not plugged in.

It is also handy for a spouse or guest in the car.
