Are most Mercedes RWD?

Most models under the Mercedes-Benz brand do adopt a rear-wheel drive (RWD) layout, which is a core manifestation of its luxury and sporty genes. However, Mercedes-Benz also offers diversified options based on model positioning: the entry-level A-Class and B-Class use front-wheel drive (FWD) to optimize space utilization and reduce prices, while the 4MATIC all-wheel drive system covers a range of models from the CLA to the GLS, particularly suitable for users requiring traction on slippery roads. Although the high-performance AMG series is based on RWD, some models are equipped with switchable all-wheel drive systems to balance the demands of intense driving. The choice of drive type is essentially Mercedes-Benz's engineering response to different usage scenarios; RWD remains the brand's technical benchmark, but all models ensure driving safety through technologies such as electronic stability systems.
