Suspension tuning
The electro-hydraulically controlled ABC sus-
pension system works continuously. This
improves driving safety and comfort. The sys-
tem detects the vehicle level and the vehicle
load and adjusts the setting accordingly. You
can also choose between a particularly sporty
mode (SPORT), a comfortable mode (COM-
FORT), as well as a comfortable mode with
cornering function (CURVE).
The ABC suspension system is tuned individ-
ually to each wheel and depends on:
your driving style, e.g. sporty
R
the road surface condition, e.g. bumps
R
your individual selection, i.e. sporty or com-
R
fort or comfort with the CURVE dynamic
cornering function
the vehicle load
R
the force of the side wind
R
Your selection remains stored even if you
remove the SmartKey from the ignition lock.
The firmer suspension setting in SPORT mode
ensures even better contact with the road.
The steering response behavior is sporty.
Select this mode on winding country roads or
highways, for example.
