Mercedes startup sounds — FAQ
Will the AMG sound play at full volume?
The startup sound follows your car’s media volume, so you stay in control — dramatic at noon, considerate at midnight.
Does this work with wireless CarPlay?
Yes. The sound triggers on the CarPlay connection event, which fires for both wired and wireless connections.
Can I combine a Mercedes sound with a matching theme?
Yes. CarTheme also includes dashboard themes and widgets, so you can pair the sound with a full luxury-style CarPlay setup.

About Mercedes startup sounds
Nobody stages an entrance like Mercedes. The MBUX system boots with a cinematic swell, the ambient lighting breathes, and if there is an AMG badge on the trunk, a handbuilt V8 detonates into life somewhere ahead of your knees. It is theatre — and it is exactly the kind of theatre your CarPlay screen deserves.
The Mercedes-inspired pack in CarTheme gives you both sides of Stuttgart: the polished, orchestral welcome tones of a modern S-Class cockpit and the barely-legal thunder of AMG cold starts. Every clip is mastered to hit cleanly through car speakers at connection time, so the show starts the second your iPhone pairs.
