2020 GLC43 arrived!
Took possession of a new 2020 GLC43 yesterday. Supposedly first one in Hawaii.
Nothing but smiles all around. Lots of new things compared to the 19'a apparently. Not that I have one, the tech concierge guy showing all the details was a bit lost and had to consult a manual or two to catch up quickly.
Anyhow, aloha and cheers.
I paired BT first which was super easy. Then I used USBC to USB female adapter cable that came with the car (it was in the glovebox) and I used standard lightning cable to plug it in into adapter cable. Then on phone, I had to enable Siri (it was off because my wife does not like her
and then carplay screen appeared on screen. It was super easy. Actually was surprised you do not even have to download carplay on Iphone. I use android auto in my car and I had to download it from Google Play.It is really great that they have touch screen now (finally) - I rented 2019 S350D in Germany this summer and boy was it painful to use carplay/android auto. And I love AMG steering wheel with touch buttons.

I did not get the tech package. I really didn't really see a need for it honestly. I can't speak for Apple products but I can everything I need to and more from my Android phone.
Bluetooth link works fine, plugging in via the USB-C port to the phone works as well and Android-Auto pops up, all voice activated commands work great too.
Watch the word "Mercedes" in the cabin, can't say it without the GLC responding.
