Vehicle Videos

Enhance the customer experience with vehicle videos by bringing existing Mercedes-Benz and smart vehicles to life true to their equipment.

Make the customer's dream vehicle come alive and tangible with impressive videos

Hardly any car purchase is purely rational – positive emotions and feelings among customers are decisive for whether and which vehicle they buy. When presenting vehicles online, vehicle videos can help to keep customers longer on the website and better convey emotions.

The videos bring the vehicle to life and show customers in an impressive way how the car looks as a whole with its corresponding equipment. The vehicle identification number (VIN) is used to provide dealers with individual videos of the desired Mercedes-Benz or smart vehicle in order to use them to promote sales when selling cars online. Dealers can use it to expand their existing visualizations and quickly and easily integrate the vehicle videos into their own solutions. Your customers will be thrilled with the new experience.

Visualization

With Vehicle Videos, you can easily illustrate a video of the specific vehicle by using the Unique Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The video shows the respective vehicle in detail – from the inside and from the outside! View the vehicle color, style, rims, trim, upholstery, trim options, and more.

All text elements of the video can be modified to create a fully dealer-branded version of the videos. In addition, the videos are easy to use through a direct API payload response and easy control over the context of use of the video scenes.
