A welcome alternative to free-fall driving<br />

Feeling on top of the world is the natural reaction once<br />

your vehicle has made it up a steep incline. But then<br />

comes the question of how to get down again. Will you<br />

be able to keep it under control as you descend steep,<br />

off-road tracks? If the surface is unfavourable? If the<br />

gradient is as much as 100%? Might you not be in for<br />

a free-fall descent under these conditions?<br />

There’s no need to worry: in the M-<strong>Class</strong> you can enjoy<br />

the ride all the way down again, too. Thanks to the patented<br />

Downhill Speed Regulation system, you can set a<br />

constant, pleasantly slow ground speed even when<br />

negotiating steep downhill stretches and difficult terrain.<br />

The cruise control lever allows the speed to be adjusted<br />

at any time. So you can always count on a safer, gentle<br />

and relaxing descent – almost as if you were floating back<br />

down under a parachute.
