One of the standout features of Mercedes-Benz cars is the advanced all-wheel drive system known as 4MATIC. Tailored to meet the unique demands of each model, the 4MATIC system varies from the front-wheel-drive compacts to the high-performance AMG sports cars, ensuring optimal performance and safety.

Understanding the 4MATIC All-Wheel Drive System

Regular 4MATIC for Versatile Performance

The standard 4MATIC system, available in most Mercedes-Benz models at Feldmann Imports, adapts to various driving conditions to provide unmatched stability and control. In front-wheel-drive models, the 4MATIC system operates in a variable mode, distributing up to 50% of torque to the rear wheels when needed, ensuring a balanced and confident drive.

For models like the popular Mercedes-Benz C 300, the 4MATIC system maintains a constant 50/50 torque split between the front and rear wheels. This setup keeps all four wheels engaged, delivering a dynamic and responsive driving experience, no matter the road conditions. If the front wheels slip, power is seamlessly transferred to the rear, and vice versa, guaranteeing maximum traction and control.

In some larger models, such as the GLE and GLS SUVs, the 4MATIC system offers a fully variable mode. This advanced feature can send up to 100% of torque to either axle, providing unparalleled versatility and performance on all terrains.

4MATIC+ for AMG Sports Cars

For those seeking the ultimate in performance, the 4MATIC+ system is reserved for AMG models, available at Feldmann Imports. This high-performance variant of the 4MATIC system is meticulously tuned to enhance the driving dynamics of AMG sports cars. For instance, the permanent 4MATIC+ system in these models distributes 69% of torque to the rear wheels, delivering a sportier and more exhilarating driving experience.

The 4MATIC+ system is designed to push the boundaries of performance. It allows 100% of torque to be sent to the rear wheels, with precise and flexible distribution to ensure maximum traction where it's needed most. In the AMG E-Class, the front axle can even be disengaged, transforming the car into a pure rear-wheel-drive vehicle for an authentic sporty feel on dry pavement.
