the vehicle that occurs during rapid driving in
curves or during quick evasive maneuvers.

Driving stability and driving comfort are in‐
creasedunderalldrivingconditions.Thesystem
utilizes active stabilizer bars on the front and rear
axles that react immediately to all driving situa‐
tions.
The concept
Integral Active Steering is a combination of Ac‐
tive Steering and rear axle steering.
Active Steering varies the steering angle of the
wheels in relation to the steering wheel move‐
ment as a function of the speed.
Programs
The system offers two different programs.
Theprograms canbe selected viaDynamicDriv‐
ing Control, refer to page 102.
At speeds up to approx. 37 mph/60 km/h, e.g.,
in curves, the steering angle is increased, i.e.,
steering becomes more direct.
SPORT
The rear axle steering acts to increase maneu‐
verability by turning the rear wheels slightly in a
direction opposite to the front wheels.
Sporty tuning for greater driving agility.
NORMAL
At higher speeds, the steering angle is increas‐
ingly reduced.
Comfort-oriented tuning for optimal comfort.
The rear wheels are turned to the same angle as
the front wheels.
Dynamic Damping Control*
In critical situations, Integral Active Steering can
specifically steer the front and rear wheels to
stabilize the vehicle before the driver intervenes,
e.g., when braking where road conditions differ
on the left and right sides of the vehicle.
The concept
This system reduces undesirable vehicle mo‐
tion when using a dynamic driving style or trav‐
eling on uneven road surfaces.
The system enhances driving dynamics and
comfort as required for the road surface and
driving style.

In rare cases, it may become necessary to initi‐
alize the Integral Active Steering.
