 | | Standard on the new C-Class Estate, the Agility Control Package with Selective Damping System raises the bar for ride comfort without compromising on precision and control.
This intelligent suspension set-up recognises the road conditions and adapts the damping behaviour accordingly. So, on a smoother road surface an integral valve reduces the damping force automatically to accommodate the smaller shocks. This significantly reduces road roar and tyre vibration, and improves the chassis’ characteristics, while maintaining high levels of active safety and comfort.
On a more challenging surface the system reinstates full damping to cope with the heavier shocks. This helps to stabilise the entire vehicle, enhancing safety and giving you greater peace of mind.
When combined with the improved shorter-throw manual transmission and more direct steering rack, the result is a more involved driving experience that doesn’t compromise comfort or ride quality. |
