DAB Radio

[kanelynne]

Hi: my wife and I are currently consider the purchase of a Marco Polo (after previously being a VW owner) and I was surprised to note that vehicle at our local dealer only has an FM radio, does DAB come standard on any models and if not does anyone know if DAB radio is an option?

Thanks
Kane

I think the latest (2019) model has got DAB as standard.

OK thanks, I'll check that with the salesman at the dealer as he didn't mention that. I was very surprised that MB are still selling vehicles without DAB radios fitted...

The reason I heard for not fitting DAB is because they couldn't get an aerial with the fibreglass roof. If that is true it's really a lame excuse. So how did they do it with the latest model?

Can you get UK radio on the continent with DAB? Nope. We use our mobile data which gives us all the digital stations plus iplayer / Sounds. A much better option in my opinion.

This thread made me check the 2019 model brochure and I found the attached. Looks like the 2019 model does come with DAB. Hope this helps.
