The two-axle self-leveling suspension uses air springs to ensure the best possible driving comfort. Regardless of the load, the vehicle will be maintained at the configured vehicle level.
The shock absorbers can be set from comfortable to sporty via the My Modes drive modes.
Depending on the driving situation, the vehicle level can be set to different levels:
Normal level: for normal road condition.
Elevated level: in poor road conditions or for light terrain.
Together with the electronically controlled shock absorbers, it always finds the right compromise between comfort and dynamics, taking your driving situation into account. With My Modes, you can influence the suspension setting according to the selected driving mode.
Before turning the feature on or off make sure all doors are closed. Opening a door while raising or lowering the vehicle interrupts the process. The process continues after closing the door.
