If V-8 power and smoothness are what you want, look no further
than the ML550 4MATIC.™ Despite its high power output, this engine
consumes less fuel than you'd expect. And while it's hard
to do justice to the pure power of the ML550 4MATIC™ in words, it
is easy to put a figure on it. It has 382 hp and maximum torque of
391 lb-ft. This allows it to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in less
than six seconds.
The M-Class takes driving enjoyment to new levels - literally -
with AIRMATIC Air Suspension1. When travelling at speed, the ride
height of the M-Class is automatically lowered. This minimizes
drag, reduces fuel consumption, and improves handling. When you
travel with a heavy payload, the air suspension keeps the ride
height of the vehicle constant at all times.
Further to these features, AIRMATIC also includes the Adaptive
Damping System (ADS) with its three manually selectable damper
settings: "Auto", "Sport" and
"Comfort". Enjoy a refined ride no matter what your
driving conditions.
