What is Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® All-Wheel Drive?

Gold Mercedes-Benz SUV on Dirt Road

Standard or available on most new Mercedes-Benz vehicles, Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® All-Wheel Drive grants greater peace of mind to Atlanta drivers by providing better traction and control in all road conditions. This advanced all-wheel drive system offers the following advantages:

  • Enhanced road grip during inclement weather, like rain, sleet, or snow
  • Preserves competitive fuel economy
  • Consistently distributes vehicle power to the wheels that can use it best in any given moment

How Does Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® All-Wheel Drive Work?

The mechanics of Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® All-Wheel Drive can be broken down into four different ways:

  • Braking, acceleration, and steering in Cumming are all dependent on the force that is sent to your vehicle’s tires. 4MATIC® All-Wheel Drive expands the power distribution from the front or rear wheels to all four, maximizing the force that can be sent to the road.
  • When taking corners in Johns Creek, the outer wheels drive a longer path than the inner wheels, causing them to rotate at different speeds. The 4MATIC® system monitors wheel spin to ensure it is operating just as it should.
  • When you encounter loose dirt, sudden rain, or icy patches in Alpharetta, the road surface can change in a flash. 4MATIC® All-Wheel Drive monitors these conditions and adjusts the brakes and engine output automatically to maintain proper road grip during any condition. The system works with an electronic traction system to keep you safe and in control no matter what.
  • High-performance driving situations require varying amounts of torque to be sent to each wheel to optimize your handling. You’ll be pleased to know that 4MATIC® All-Wheel Drive does just that (automatically) so you never miss a beat!
