Mercedes CLS 257 Coupe 400 d AMG Line 4MATIC 9G-TRONIC - Terrain

Is the Mercedes CLS 257 Coupe 400 d AMG Line 4MATIC 9G-TRONIC also suitable for off-road use? Here usually a distinction is made between "soft-roaders" and real off-roaders. For real off-road capability it needs more than just an all-wheel drive. The SUV boom of the last 10 years has produced many vehicles that look off-road capable but have limited capability to do so.

The Mercedes CLS has all-wheel drive, which means that the basic requirement is already met. Ground clearance, another important criterion, in this vehicle is 93 mm. This is definitely too low for off-road use.

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 CLS is not made for off-road use.
