The 0exible all-wheel distribution of the4 MATIC
means thed rive is alw aysi deal lydist ributed
between bo thaxles. Depending on thes ituation,
onl ythe front axle or onl ythe rear axle can be
driven, or thed rive can be distributed continu-
ousl ybetwe en bo thaxles.
This mean sthat recuperation can be used even
mor ee.ectivel yand ther ang eoft hevehicle can
be increased (/ page164).
To get her wit hESP®
and 4ETS, 4MATIC impr oves
