0 Mercedes-Benz 4MATIC: All-wheel drive for all – in every class

Each year during winter time, Mercedes-Benz heads over to the icy cold Hochgurgl resort in the Austrian Alps along with its fleet of off-road competent and capable vehicles equipped with the revolutionary 4MATIC traction system. In 2012, the Germans deployed their new CLS Shooting Brake, GL and GLK models to take a journey on the snow-covered alpine roads. Moreover, this event also served as a preview for the new addition in the compact class lineup: the CLA, which celebrates its world premiere in January 2013 at NAIAS Detroit.

With this occasion, Mercedes-Benz took the challenge to emphasize the versatility of the state-of-the-art 4MATIC all-wheel-drive system, which can be easily adapted across the entire range of models that wear the Star, from the A-Class and CLA-Class up to the classic G-Class, going through the C-, E-, S-, CL-, CLS-, GL-, GLK-, M- and R-Class. The introduction of the new version that was specially developed for compact-sized, front-driven vehicles heralds the advent of the new A 45 AMG performance hatchback, as well as the advent of the new CLA 45 AMG super 4-door coupe, both slated to arrive next year.
