At a glance

  • More manoeuvrability for your compatible Mercedes – makes parking in one go and manoeuvring tight corners easier
  • Reduces the turning circle by up to 1 meter compared to standard rear axle steering
  • Steering angle and driving curve can be viewed at any time in the central display

Gives your compatible Mercedes-Benz more manoeuvrability

In multi-storey car parks, it can get very tight quickly when trying to park, or even when entering and exiting;every centimetre counts. The smaller the turning circle, the easier it is to manoeuvre.With the large steering angle, the rear axle steering plays even more to its strengths:The turning circle can thus be additionally reduced by up to 1 metre.

 

Your advantages at a glance

The Rear axle steering with larger steering angle (max. 10° steering angle adjustment) improves the handling and manoeuvrability of your compatible Mercedes-Benz. It is automatically active when parking or when exiting parking spaces, and when driving slowly.Compared to rear axle steering without a large steering angle, you require about 1 metre less space for the turning circle, and even up to 2 metres less when compared to vehicles without rear axle steering. You can see which steering angle is currently set and which driving curve results from this in the central display.
