Offroad parameters

Offroad parameters. The offroad parameters change depending on the suspension. The maximum climbing capability (60 per cent) and transverse gradient (35 degrees) are identical with steel and air suspension. The front ramp angle is 23.3 degrees and the rear ramp angle is 17.2 degrees. The breakover angle amounts to 13.5 degrees. With steel suspension the ground clearance totals 215 mm and with air suspension its normal levels is 188 mm. As the ground clearance can be increased by up to 70 mm with air suspension, the maximum fording depth also increases (from 480 to 550 mm). The manually adjustable level of the air suspension is activated using rotary switches in the centre console.

The specified fuel consumption and emission data does not refer to a single vehicle and is not part of the offer but is only intended for comparison between different types of vehicles. Additional equipment and accessories (additional components, tyre formats, etc.) can alter relevant vehicle parameters such as weight, rolling resistance and aerodynamics, affecting the vehicle's fuel consumption, power consumption, CO₂ emissions and driving performance values in addition to weather and traffic conditions and individual driving behavior.

Further information on official fuel consumption data and official specific CO₂ emissions for new passenger cars can be found in the "Guide to fuel economy, CO₂ emissions and power consumption for new passenger car models", which is available free of charge from all sales dealerships and from DAT Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH, Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, D-73760 Ostfildern, Germany and at www.dat.de/co2.
