Mercedes-Benz E350 4Matic. From 2,239,600 rubles.

Mercedes-Benz began selling an E-class with a 4Matic all-wheel drive system. The difference from the previous version is to change the distribution of traction efforts, which from now on is 45% on the front wheels and 55% per rear. This became possible thanks to the debugged interaction of 4ets and ESP

The test in the Adyghe Republic at first seemed not entirely suitable in natural indicators to verify the capabilities of the Mercedes-Benz E350 4MATIC. But, as usual, the weather makes its own adjustments. Nonal weather in the Kuban fog has provided acceptable conditions at the improvised airfield and polygon site in the vicinity of Krasnodar. Wet asphalt and designed with approximate compliance with the standards of the figure, although not fully, but helped to test the capabilities of the 4Matic system. And the Mon -Raping Assembly provided with an identical volume made it possible to feel the difference.

In the new Mercedes-Benz E350 4MATIC model in the handout, there is a mechanically prescribed distribution of torque in relation to 45:55. With the introduction of a 4ET traction system into the control system of the electronic distribution system, which automatically turns on when at least one clutch wheel is lost, the need for differentials brought to zero. Interacting with the ESP system when transmitting torque through the main pairs of the front and rear bridges, the 4ETS system replaced three ordinary differentials: front, rear and interdess. Mercedes-Benz technology technicians believe that the electric signal will react faster to slipping and through slowing down the traction force to the wheel with the best clutch with the road. It should be noted that with the same all-wheel drive system, in the E-class there will be cars with a 5-liter gasoline engine and a 3.5-liter diesel engine.

Practice has shown that the theory is close to the truth. On the figures where a sharp rebuild was required, the new 4Matic system, in collaboration with the serially installed chassis of Agility Control, retained the trajectory of movement, struggling with the laws of physics affecting the car. The Agility Control suspension was responsible for the rigidity of the shock absorbers at a crucial moment, not allowing the car to unnecessally peck with his nose and not creating reasons for slipping the front wheels due to a high inertial speed. To good explosive dynamics of the Mercedes-Benz E350 with an engine of 272 liters. With. And the 4MATIC system added improved handling and stability.

Driving
Reliable and predictable behavior, regardless of weather conditions.

alon
In the interior, solidity and luxury are combined with excess space for passengers.

Comfort
Active suspension does not only with active driving, significant comfort with measured movement.

Safety
It will take a lot of time to transfer safety funds.

Price
The price is explained by the prestige of the brand and high techniques.


Advantages and disadvantages

+ The car was created for just rest and rest during work.
- Significant minuses are not established.
