Mercedes-Benz, the luxury car brand known for its sleek designs and innovative technology, has once again made headlines with its latest update to the Mercedes-Benz Operating System (MB.OS). During this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, the company showcased the new MBUX Collectibles digital gallery feature that allows users to browse NFTs related to the brand.
MBUX Collectibles
The new feature, aptly named ‘MBUX Collectiables’, is a part of the popular Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) dashboard. It offers users a unique experience by combining traditional luxury vehicles with the exciting and growing world of NFTs.
With just a few taps on the dashboard, users can browse and explore digital collectibles related to Mercedes-Benz, adding a new level of interactivity and personalization to their driving experience.
Leading the Way in the Web3 Movement
Mercedes-Benz’s foray into NFTs is not its first venture into the world of blockchain technology. In 2020, the company piloted a project to track CO2 emissions from its cobalt supply chain using blockchain. This move showcases Mercedes-Benz’s commitment to sustainability and innovation in its operations.
Furthermore, by embracing NFTs and incorporating them into their latest operating system update, Mercedes-Benz is positioning itself as a pro-Web3 brand, connecting with the younger generation and staying on top of industry trends.

A Look into Mercedes-Benz’s NFT Collections
Last year, Mercedes-Benz made waves in the NFT world by launching its first NXT Icon collection featuring 18,860 digital collectibles. The collection was a success, with all NFTs being sold out within hours of their release. This year, the company released its second NXT Icon collection, further solidifying its presence in the NFT market.
In addition to these collections, Mercedes-Benz also debuted ‘Maschin’, its first NFT collection, in April of last year. These digital collectibles will now be displayed on the revised MBUX collectibles dashboard, making them easily accessible for users.
What This Means for the Future of Luxury Vehicles
The inclusion of NFTs in the MBUX dashboard is yet another step towards bridging the gap between traditional luxury vehicles and digital innovation. With this move, Mercedes-Benz shows its understanding of the changing consumer landscape and its commitment to providing a unique and personalized experience for its users.
As the demand for NFTs continues to rise, we can expect to see more luxury car brands following in the footsteps of Mercedes-Benz and incorporating them into their own products.
In Conclusion
Mercedes-Benz has once again solidified its position as a leader in innovation with the introduction of MBUX Collectibles in its latest operating system update. By embracing NFTs, the company is not only providing a new level of interactivity for its users, but also making a statement about its dedication to sustainability and staying on top of industry trends.
As the NFT market continues to grow, we can expect Mercedes-Benz to remain at the forefront, setting new standards for luxury vehicles in the digital age. So, it’s time to gear up and experience the future of driving with Mercedes-Benz’s MBUX Collectibles.
