Active roll stabilization  
Principle  
Active roll stabilization reduces the roll ten-  
dency of the body that occurs during rapid cor-  
nering or during quick evasive maneuvers.  
Chassis components  
General information  
The roll tendency of the vehicle is balanced out  
by permanent adjustment on the front and rear  
axles. The vehicle is thus always stabilized.  
The chassis components are optimized for the  
vehicle and its application range and thereby  
ensure the best possible driving experience.  
Agility and driving comfort are increased under  
all driving conditions.  
Adaptive M suspension  
Setting  
Principle  
The system offers different settings ranging  
from comfortable travel to sporty driving.  
The adaptive suspension is an intelligent con-  
trollable suspension.  
The settings are assigned to the different driv-  
ing modes of the Driving Experience Control.  
The chassis reduces body movements with a  
sporty driving style or on an uneven road.  
Additional information:  
Driving Experience Control, refer to page 135.
