Mercedes-Benz of Hoffman Estates

Have you heard of Siri? It's Apple's virtual personal assistant, currently only available for the iPhone 4S. If you haven't, you will soon. Mercedes-Benz recently announced that it will use the technology in its new "Drive Kit Plus" electronic system, which works in tandem with the brand's Digital DriveStyle. With these technologies combined, drivers will be able to access their iPhone apps, change the music, send texts, and make calls using only the sound of their voices- no hands required. "Drive Kit Plus" will be available in several 2013 Mercedes-Benz models and will be the first in-car system to incorporate Apple's technology.
