The thought alone stirs up longing: a spur-of-the-moment detour off-road, along a farm track, across snow or sand – the E-Class All-Terrain relishes getting off the asphalt and does so in style. Its looks reflect this assertiveness: the typical SUV-style simulated underguards front and rear. The wheel arch linings, protecting the paintwork from flying chippings. The robust design of the bumpers and side skirts. The E-Class All-Terrain is immediately identifiable by its unique radiator trim – downtown or way out yonder.

The E-Class All-Terrain is well-deserving of its name, both in visual and in technological terms. The AIR BODY CONTROL air suspension features a specific level control system that can be used to raise the suspension to increase ground clearance even further. What’s more, the All-Terrain drive program adjusts control systems such as the ESP^® Electronic Stability Program or the acceleration skid control (ASR) to deal with unsurfaced roads or adverse road conditions. Particularly in conjunction with 4MATIC all-wheel drive, this ensures extremely reliable traction and effortless acceleration.

The load compartment of the E-Class All-Terrain, with a capacity of up to 1820 litres, features a new system for folding down the rear seat backrest. The backrest splits 40:20:40, with release switches to unlock and automatically fold the sections down on the side wall of the load compartment and in the area of the C-pillar. In addition there is a Cargo function for the second row of seats: increasing the rake angle of the backrest by 10° creates additional load capacity of around 30 litres. In other words plenty of space for a major trip or even a small house removal. In order to ensure that even when fully laden neither comfort nor, above all, driving safety are compromised, the E-Class All Terrain is fitted as standard with air suspension with a level control system at the rear axle.
