Details and Highlights

What makes the Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® system stand out? It’s an all-wheel drive system designed to provide maximum traction in any condition, and maximum traction means maximum driver control.

Along with the Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC®, our Mercedes-Benz vehicles come equipped with performance and handling features to keep you safe and to help you push the limit. The Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® comes in combination with a multi-disc clutch and an electrohydraulic control built into the rear axle differential on Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® Variable All-Wheel Drive models.

Whether it’s snowy, rainy, or wet, the Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® system is here for your driving needs. It gives you extra grip in the slippery conditions, and extra speed when the road is dry, for peace of mind every time you get behind the wheel.

Options for Every Driver

You have two different Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® options to pick from, the Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® Variable All-Wheel Drive and the Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® Permanent All-Wheel Drive.

Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® Variable All-Wheel Drive shifts between different driving settings, like front-wheel drive for the highway and a 50-50 front-rear split, when needed, so you’ll be as safe as possible, no matter what the road — or trail — ahead might hold. Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC® Permanent All-Wheel Drive is locked in place, equally distributing power to all four wheels at all times. That means a boost to both the handling capability and comfort of the vehicle when conditions get tough, and a faster time off the line.
