Dynamic Damping Control  
Concept  
This system reduces undesirable vehicle mo‐  
tion when using a dynamic driving style or trav‐  
eling on uneven road surfaces.  
Activating HDC  
This enhances the driving dynamics and driv‐  
ing comfort depending on the road surface  
condition and driving style.  
Programs  
The system offers several different programs.  
The programs can be selected via Driving Dy‐  
namics Control.  
SPORT  
Press button; the LED above the button  
lights up.  
Consistently sporty control of the shock ab‐  
sorbers for greater driving agility.  
SPORT+  
Deactivating HDC  
Consistently sporty control of the shock ab‐  
sorbers for greater driving agility when driving  
with limited driving stabilization.  
Press button again. The LED goes out.  
HDC is automatically deactivated above  
approx. 37 mph/60 km/h.  
COMFORT/ECO PRO  
Balanced control of the vehicle.  
Display in the instrument cluster  
The selected speed is displayed  
in the speedometer.  
Variable sport steering  
Green: the system is actively  
braking the vehicle.  
The variable sport steering increases the  
steering angle of the front wheels at large  
steering wheel angles, e.g., in tight curves or  
when parking. Steering becomes more direct.  
Orange: the system is on  
standby.  
It also varies the force required to turn the  
wheels in accordance with the vehicle speed.  
Malfunction  
A message is displayed in the instrument clus‐  
ter. HDC is not available, e.g., due to elevated  
brake temperatures.  
This results in a sporty steering response. In  
addition, it becomes easier to steer during  
parking and maneuvering.
