Called Digital DriveStyle, the new app is designed to work with Pebble Technology’s line of so-called smart watches.
When linked to a Mercedes-Benz product, the Digital DriveStyle application can display important vehicle information, such as fuel level, door-lock status and vehicle location. Moreover, that information can be accessed on the Pebble smart watch when a driver is away from their vehicle.
When used while the vehicle is in motion, the smart watch application can warn drivers of hazards such as accidents or road construction. The watch alerts the driver by vibrating.
Users can also customized the smart watch’s three buttons to utilize certain features of the Digital DriveStyle app, like Siri activation or media controls.
Mercedes-Benz has not announced when the Digital DriveStyle app will be available to the general public for Pebble’s smart watch.
