A Comprehensive Guide to Identifying Mercedes COMAND APS Head Units
When it comes to your Mercedes-Benz's infotainment system, understanding the intricacies of its head unit is crucial. The COMAND APS series encompasses several versions, each offering different features and compatibility with specific models. In this comprehensive guide, we will help you identify the right COMAND APS head unit for your car, ensuring you make informed choices about upgrades and replacements.
​
1. COMAND APS NTG5: Cutting-Edge Infotainment
The Mercedes-Benz NTG 5 COMAND (NTG5HU) represents the pinnacle of infotainment technology. Found in models like W205, V-Class, W222, and GLC, this head unit boasts impressive features. With built-in Bluetooth calling, a DVD drive, and playback capabilities for DVDs, CDs, and MP3s, it elevates your driving experience. The unit's 8.4″ LCD monitor is navigable via a central touch panel, while its built-in hard disk accommodates up to 40GB of music storage. The COMAND APS NTG5 also supports additional features like iPod integration, TV tuner, rearview camera compatibility, and DVD playback during driving, though an anti-theft code is required for optimal security.
​

2. COMAND APS NTG4.7: Seamless Connectivity
An evolution of NTG4.5, the COMAND 4.7 emphasizes connectivity. It enables internet sharing with iPhone or Android devices and offers updated maps. Installed on select 2012 models, this version enhances your driving experience with its smart features. While not available in all markets, the COMAND APS NTG4.7 remains a sought-after choice for seamless integration.

3. COMAND APS NTG4.5: Popular and Feature-Rich
Widely regarded as one of the most popular head units, the NTG 4.5 adds a touch of luxury to models produced between 2012 and 2015. Compatible with various models like W166, W204, W212, and more, it packs features like an internal hard drive, DVD player, 7″ TFT monitor, and versatile playback options. Handsfree calling, 2D/3D navigation, and voice control further enhance its usability, with a 25-digit anti-theft code ensuring its security.
​

4. COMAND APS NTG 4: Navigation and Beyond
Installed in select 2008 to 2011 models, including the GLK, E, and C Class, the COMAND NTG 4 strikes a balance between functionality and sophistication. Apart from supporting navigation and hands-free calling, it enables video playback and parking camera integration. Additional features require interfaces, making this head unit a compelling option for enhancing your driving experience.

5. COMAND APS NTG 2.5: Modern Features
Featuring a 6.5″ LCD screen, the COMAND NTG 2.5 is synonymous with models produced from 2009 to 2012, spanning the ML, GL, R, SLK, SL, and E classes. Its standout features include CD/MP3/WMA/DVD support, built-in navigation, Bluetooth, and ample storage options. The unit supports rearview cameras, iPod integration, and TV tuner, offering a comprehensive infotainment package.
​

6. COMAND APS NTG 2: Navigating Excellence
The COMAND APS NTG2, also known as COMAND MCS II, graces models like the C, CLK, E, and R classes. Equipped with built-in navigation and a CD changer option, its capabilities can be further expanded with adapters, allowing smartphone pairing. While its navigation requires a dedicated DVD, its versatility makes it a standout choice.

7. COMAND APS NTG 1: Pioneering Infotainment
Introduced in 2003, the COMAND APS NTG 1 series revolutionized Mercedes-Benz infotainment. Compatible with models like CLS-Klasse, SLK-Klasse, and E-Klasse, it boasts a built-in CD player with MP3 support and, in some cases, navigation. This version, distinct from the early COMMAND systems, marked the transition to the MOST network for enhanced performance.
​

8. COMAND 2.0 and 2.5: The Genesis of Mercedes Infotainment
The pioneering COMAND 2.0 and 2.5 laid the foundation for Mercedes-Benz's infotainment prowess. Featuring cassette and CD players, these units used D2B optical rings and external amplifiers. However, they lacked modern Bluetooth capabilities and required specific phones for certain functions.
​

Understanding your Mercedes-Benz COMAND APS head unit is vital for making informed decisions about upgrades and replacements. From the cutting-edge NTG5 to the pioneering NTG 1, each version offers unique features and compatibility. Whether you prioritize connectivity, navigation, or multimedia options, there's a COMAND APS head unit tailored to your preferences. Stay informed, and elevate your driving experience with the right choice.
