I've tried various systems and the one that's impressed me the most has been subarus , so far.
I've not tried the mb one though. That's a beautiful eclass
Audi
I'm thinking about what car is good for a general luxury car but can handle snowy conditions easily. If there is a good car for less than 50k I would look at that also.
It is probably a good thing the license plate was covered with snow! 😎
this is a tire test (not a car test). 1990 Honda Civic with those tires will perform just fine as well.
Yes but u need also a good 4wd it's Mutch from tiers it's correct but a good 4wd is also important.
Have u ever heard differentials
I can tell from lot of snow driving with RWD 4matic doing as much as the tire if not even more.
💀💀💀 no honda civic getting you out deep snow not even a 2022 honda civic I had one as loaner and couldn't leave My drive way compared to my rogue nissan awd
Brother, are you mentally challenged? Do you think your little ricer drives the same as e class 4matic? 🤡🤡🤡🤡
How do you think rwd w proper winter tires would do on this uphill climb? I’ve been stuck several times in rwd w non winter tires on the slightest of inclines.
Not good. The rwd vehicles never get good traction especially with automatic gearbox.
Horrible
It will do just as well. I live in Norway with lots of snow. Good winter tires are all you need. AWD is just a gimmick made to sell vehicles to the ignorant.
That was horrible. I wouldn't want one of these in Finland. Can you turn all the nonsense off and drive it like a car without going to the dyno mode?
Just turn off start stop system that damage the engine...
Super snow (not even a inch) super cold (This guys dont have a winter coat)... ->>> bring this baby to Canada
Can you do this test on the Model 3 performance with the same tires? I have these tires on my m3 performance with the 20” grey turbines but I do not have these hills in Illinois.
I have a 2004 E320 with the 4matic drive system. I recently installed a full set of General Tire Altimax Arctic 12 snow tires. I drive it in and around Flagstaff Arizona. During the past 3 weeks the area has been hit with several snow storms. I’ve driven about a 1000 miles on these new tires. I’ve had absolutely no difficultly traveling on the roads during the snow storms or afterward. The 4matic drive system is very impressive and capable when combined with the proper tires for the current road conditions. There is very little slippage. I can confidently and safely navigate through traffic. I have not had any difficultly moving forward from a full stop. Even on a snow covered incline. But I’m most impressed with the straight line braking. The vehicle is very stable and sure footed. Using a good set of snow tires during winter driving conditions, is the only way to achieve the maximum effectiveness of the technology benefits associated with ABS, ESP and 4MATIC in winter operating conditions. I highly recommend these tires. They are a great value for the money.
There are 4 generations of 4-Matic. They are not all equal.
'it's impressive for a mercedes sedan to have that much capability in snow and ice' dude... 4matic was always and is still the best.
Now do this with some basic all seasons
But why? If you live in snowy conditions/expect to drive through snow and ice you should, no, MUST have proper winter tyres. They're the first line of defense against slipping on snow and ice. A RWD/FWD car with winter tyres will do much better on snow and ice than an AWD with all-season.
My 2015 C300 amg and 2017 c43amg sedan were amazing in the snow in big bear snow. Always had traction and never once stuck. Always confident with 4matic.
Thats why trust mercedes
Wtf is a c300 amg lmao
Does Mercedes sell the car with those Sottozerro snow tires, would find that very odd. Nice looking car.
Thanks for the video, im considering an E-class Allterrain wagon and for long road trips to Scandinavian countries. I dont like SUVs and hope the All terrain has enough ground clearance for Scandinavian winters. The All-wheel drive system seems to be up there.
You mention that 4-Matic was invented 20-30 years ago. But there has been 4 generations of 4-Matic AWD/4WD. I think it's a misconception to think that it is true or same as the original..
This guy talks more than my parrot
😂
It did really good, great tires and great system 4matic is best combo! I drove RWD before and is was terrible even with the best tires on!
RWD is just fine if you have the right tires (studded winter tires).
More snowy videos please
Cheers from Austria
😎
has it a diff lock?
No
Pretty impressive climb. No getting stuck today.
I live in the southern region of Texas; I don't worry about snow. The last 4 times it has snowed in my hometown were 2017, 2004, 1976, and 1887.
And 2021 🤷🏻♂️
@@MaTTCWorld Greg Abbot told him not to bring that up
More importantly.....how does it STOP on the snow and ice.
It stops perfectly fine, due to the fact of course it's on winter tires with has it's grip. if it was all season tires little bit longer distance but works great. Summer tires i'd expect much longer stopping distance
Just get a 540i xdrive! It’s a better car
We have one coming. I’m not so sure it’s better! We will find out.
@@OutofSpecReviews the engine is definitely better! Causes the B58 engine in the 40i is a masterpiece plus BMW has a much longer history of producing grate Inline 6 engines
@@dushenepaulusha7210 yea but Mercedes is better says eaven mat from carwow so the 350 or 400 is better than a 540i.
@@Leon13410 test drive both and find out for yourself! I’ve done that and the e class has worse interior build quality and use of cheaper materials, for example the centre of the steering wheel is fully Lethe to the bmw but plastic on the merc
@@dushenepaulusha7210 i do sit but the journalist say the Mercedes have a better interior quality than bmw eaven a Audi workers says that merc is the best of the 3.
And of course it's capable in snow. I would have thought the volume of Mercedes sales in Switzerland and Austria would give you a clue. What's your next vlog going to test? Do hairdressers like Evoques?🤨
