Does the Mercedes-Benz GLB200 Have Remote Start?

Mercedes-Benz GLB200 does not have remote start. Here are the relevant details about the Mercedes-Benz GLB: 1. Exterior: The Mercedes-Benz GLB features a grille with two chrome trim strips paired with the Mercedes star emblem. The lower lip of the front bumper has a chrome hollow trim strip running across it, forming a two-lip shape with the bumper, which is quite striking. 2. System: The Mercedes-Benz GLB is equipped with a 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system, which distributes power via an electronically controlled multi-plate clutch. This AWD system offers three modes: in Eco (Economy) and Comfort modes, it primarily operates as front-wheel drive with a torque distribution of 80:20 between the front and rear axles; in Sport mode, the torque distribution is 70:30; and when switched to Off-Road mode, the default torque distribution is 50:50.
My own Mercedes-Benz GLB200 comes with remote start, which can be operated via the mobile app. First, you need to confirm that your car is equipped with Mercedes me connectivity, then download the official app and bind your vehicle. On winter mornings, you can press the start button while still in bed, and ten minutes later, the car will be warm when you go downstairs. In summer, you can also turn on the air conditioning in advance to cool down the car. However, lower trim models may require this as an optional feature, so remember to ask the salesperson when purchasing. Additionally, the engine preheating time is limited to 10 minutes, after which it will automatically shut off, so don't set it for too long. This feature is a lifesaver in northern regions where temperatures drop below -10°C, as you no longer have to grip a freezing steering wheel when getting in the car.
As a Mercedes-Benz owner, I believe the remote start function for the GLB200 requires three conditions: the vehicle must have a 4G connectivity module, an active Mercedes me service subscription, and the official app installed on the phone. My 2022 model automatically turns on the air conditioning to the last set temperature upon remote start. Note that doors are forcibly locked during remote start to prevent unauthorized access. Once, my remote start failed in the garage due to poor signal reception. I recommend ensuring the vehicle is parked in an area with good network coverage when using this feature, otherwise the command may get stuck in the sending state. Also, Mercedes provides 1-3 years of free service, but the renewal fee after expiration is quite expensive.
