Want it wireless?
If your 2016 Mercedes-Benz A-Class has wired CarPlay or wired Android Auto, a plug-in wireless adapter can usually remove the cable. It plugs into the car's USB data port and talks to your phone over Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. It only works if the car already supports the wired version.
