DRIFT MODE is available only for the Mercedes‑AMG E 63 S 4MATIC+ model or for vehicles with AMG DYNAMIC PLUS package.
DRIFT MODE enables intentional unstable movement (drifting) and oversteering of the vehicle. All activation conditions must be fulfilled for this (ESP® deactivated, for example).
Only a highly qualified and experienced driver should drive in DRIFT MODE.
Be sure to read the safety notes and information on ESP®More.
When you use DRIFT MODE, ESP® is not available.
There is an increased risk of skidding and having an accident.
When DRIFT MODE is active, the vehicle drive occurs only at the rear and 4MATIC+ is deactivated.
From a speed of approximately 115 km/h up to 150 km/h 4MATIC+ is continuously reactivated. From a speed of 150 km/h 4MATIC+ is fully active again, ESP® however, remains deactivated. Below a speed of 150 km/h to approximately 115 km/h 4MATIC+ is continuously deactivated again.
DRIFT MODE is only available after the vehicle has been run in .
