% Vehicles with the AMG Aerodynamics pack‐
age are equipped with a fixed rear wing. The
position of this rear wing is not adjustable.
The rear wing improves the rear axle output and,
therefore, the vehicle's driving stability. You can
move the rear wing into an inclined and a flat
position.
When you move the rear wing into the inclined
position, the rear axle output and the air resist‐
ance increase.
