Mercedes-Benz 4×4

What Are the Components of the Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® system?

• 4-wheel Electronic Traction System – Sending power to the wheels, slipping can be prevented as each wheel holds its own. And when combined with the Antilock Braking System, 4-ETS can prevent slipping in bad weather and help apply the breaks to the slipping wheel.
• 7-speed automatic transmission – Power being sent to the front and rear axles, along with the 4-wheel Electronic Braking System, help manage the torque of each individual wheel.
• Weight shifts – When braking, the weight gets moved to the front wheels, allowing the vehicle to stop more efficiently.
• Models – The Mercedes-Benz models that have 4×4 drive systems include the CLA, C-Class, E-Class, S-Class, CLS, GLA, GLC, GLE, and GLS. Get behind the wheel of one of these Mercedes-Benz models to feel the difference for yourself.
