- hinkley 2y agoThat’s hell on the tires if they are fixed axle isn’t it?
- _yb2s 2y agoNot if you are on a loose offroad surface. The Sherp offroad vehicle for example, only turns this way.
- titaniumtown 2y agoVery neat! I bet it isn't good for the tires though haha.
- HeavenFox 2y agoThe Mercedes G implementation of this specifically called out not to use this feature on pavement :)
- mrkurt 2y agoThis was a demo they did in a video but it's not available to anyone who actually owns one of these. I believe the EV Mercedes G Wagon does have it as a feature though.
- Schiendelman 2y agoCould you edit your comment? This is incorrect. It was a demo, but they chose not to do it because it does so much damage to ground surface, and their vehicles are intended to be used in places like national parks where that matters a lot.
- ulrischa 2y agoSeems like I can not edit it. Sorry
