Thumbs up

Just been reading a topic on the Merc Command system in the "Competition" forum where someone was asking if BMW will ever offer voice activated nav. Doesn't the EVC activate it? I thought it did! Anyone know?

Sure are lots of Nav voice commands. I have not had a chance to do many, but I have done some, and they work.

Here is the complete list of (US) voice commands somewhere on this forum - taken from this forum somewhere - there are quite a few Nav commands, and I wouldn't be surprised if there were more now. From what I understand, you can't enter addresses or postcodes by voice yet, but I could be wrong.

You're not wrong New535. You can't enter destinations via voice (yet) but you can navigate through the different screens...
