Mercedes-Benz E-Class: Suspension tuning
General notes
The electronically controlled damping system works continuously. This improves driving safety and ride comfort.
The damping is tuned individually to each wheel and depends on:
- your driving style, e.g. sporty
- the road surface condition, e.g. bumps
- your individual selection, i.e. sports or
comfort
Your selection remains stored even if you remove the SmartKey from the ignition lock.
