2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class 4Matic
With snow, sleet, freezing fog, black ice, temperatures hovering around zero and severe frosts, the drivers of Mercedes models equipped with the 4MATIC permanent all-wheel-drive system can set off for the daily commute to work. This is because the 4MATIC drive concept boasts formidable performance on snow-covered or icy roads. The Mercedes-Benz E-Class 4MATIC in particular stands out for its blend of high traction reserves, excellent directional stability, peerless safety and exceptional comfort levels. Mercedes-Benz is demonstrating the capa-bilities of the Saloon and Estate models by staging a 4MATIC Workshop in extreme winter conditions on the Timmelsjoch high alpine road in Austria.
