Mercedes B-Class W246 CarPlay Box: the family MPV enters the smartphone era

The B-Class W246 has everything to last — interior space, finish, reliability — except an interface designed before the era of apps. This Mercedes B-Class W246 CarPlay box modernizes the interior of 2012-2015 models with a CarPlay and Android Auto interface module. This plug & play box advantageously replaces an obsolete original multimedia system by offering you complete smartphone connectivity without altering the vehicle's electronics. Real-time GPS navigation, high-quality music streaming and smart voice control are displayed directly on your dashboard screen.

Real-time navigation on the B-Class screen

Abandon paper maps and precarious phone holders suctioned to the windshield. This module natively integrates Google Maps, Waze and Apple Maps for precise voice guidance with live traffic information. On school runs as well as busy holiday departures, this CarPlay interface for Mercedes W246 guarantees optimal responsiveness for safe driving on highways and in cities.

Spotify, Siri and steering wheel controls: the connected daily life of a W246

Instantly access your Spotify, Deezer and Apple Music playlists. The interface faithfully reproduces the experience of your smartphone while maintaining the use of the original steering wheel controls. Siri and Google Assistant assistants can be activated by voice to manage your calls and messages without taking your eyes off the road, a major asset for long family trips where your hands remain busy with driving.

• Wireless CarPlay and wireless Android Auto — both ecosystems paired without a cable.
• Compatible with NTG 4.5, 4.7 and 5.0 — wide coverage of the Mercedes generations of the time.
• Original Quadlock and LVDS connectors — no wires cut in the Mercedes harness.
• Harman Kardon audio preserved — the sound quality of the audio package remains intact.
• Metal box with heat dissipation — stability during prolonged use, even in summer.
• Reversing camera natively supported — no loss of function when maneuvering.

A reversible installation behind the original W246 radio

Designed for a simple installation, this box connects directly behind your original radio via the Quadlock and LVDS connectors. No complex coding is required. The installation preserves all original functions, including the reversing camera and the Harman Kardon audio system if equipped. The Mercedes B-Class CarPlay adapter is as easy to remove as it is to install, which leaves the car perfectly restorable to its factory condition.

Extended compatibility with the Mercedes-Benz NTG range

This module is specifically calibrated for NTG 4.5, 4.7 and 5.0 systems. It fits perfectly into W246 models, but is also suitable for W176 or W204 owners looking to modernize their interior. Pair it with our steering wheel paddles for a sporty and connected driving experience, and browse our best-selling performance accessories to optimize your vehicle.

How to know which NTG version equips my B-Class?

This is the check to perform before any order. On a 2012-2015 W246, the home screen and the presence or absence of a touchpad on the center console already give a good indication of the installed NTG generation. The vehicle's serial number then allows a professional to confirm the exact version. This box covering NTG 4.5, 4.7 and 5.0, the vast majority of B-Classes from this period fall within the scope — but clearing up a doubt before purchase is better than a return after delivery.

Mercedes retrofitting, without touching the standard electronics

Our principle is simple: complete the original system, never cut it down. The screen remains that of the car, the controls too, and the vehicle gains ten years of technology in one intervention. Switch to modern technology today.

Add this B-Class W246 CarPlay box to your cart and enjoy complete wireless connectivity from your next trip.
