Automatic drive program
Drive program E (drive program C on AMG vehicles) is characterized by the
following:
• comfort-oriented engine and automatic transmission settings
• optimal fuel consumption resulting from the automatic transmission shifting
up sooner
• the vehicle pulling away more gently in forward and reverse gears, unless the
accelerator pedal is depressed fully
• increased sensitivity. This improves driving stability on slippery road
surfaces, for example
• the automatic transmission shifting up sooner. This results in the vehicle
being driven at lower engine speeds and the wheels being less likely to spin
Drive program S (drive programs S and S+ on AMG vehicles) is characterized by
the following:
• sporty engine and automatic transmission settings
• the vehicle pulling away in first gear
• the automatic transmission shifting up later
• the fuel consumption possibly being higher as a result of the later automatic
transmission shift points
