Mercedes A-Klasse 177 A 45 S AMG EDITION 1 4MATIC SPEEDSHIFT DCT 8G - Terrain

Can the Mercedes A-Klasse 177 A 45 S AMG EDITION 1 4MATIC SPEEDSHIFT DCT 8G also be used off-road? Here usually a distinction is made between "soft-roaders" and real off-roaders. Wanting to go into real off-road it needs more than just some more ground clearance. The SUV boom of the last 10 years has produced many vehicles that look off-road but have limited capability to do so.

The Mercedes A-Klasse has all-wheel drive, which means that the basic requirement is already met. Ground clearance, another important criterion, in this vehicle is 97 mm. This is definitely too low for off-road use.

The integrated air suspension allows the chassis to be raised under certain circumstances, thus increasing ground clearance. The integrated 360-degree camera can also help you move forward on rough terrain and avoid damage.

Rating: The automobile does have all-wheel drive, but not least the lack of ground clearance indicates that a Mercedes A-Klasse is not made for off-road use.
