Mercedes will receive IMAX quality from Sony  - 1

It is noted that from the summer of 2025, users who have a subscription to the RIDEVU service will be able to enjoy watching films from the Sony Pictures catalog in their cars from the German premium brand, in IMAX format.

The service allows you to buy, rent or watch streaming films and other audiovisual content while traveling. Of course, there is a catch. To avoid the risk to traffic, the content can only be played when the car is stationary, for example when charging.

However, passengers will be able to view this content during the trip via built-in screens or via iOS and Android devices. The system is known to support six-screen broadcasting, so that each passenger can control their content independently of the other passengers in the car.

The RIDEVU service will initially be available in the US, Canada, Japan, the UK, Ireland and Germany. However, other markets are expected to join them soon - Spain, Italy and other EU countries.
