Automatic drive program
Drive program E (drive program C on AMG vehicles) is characterized by the following:
- 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
