GLK 350 Torque Split?
Does anyone happen to know what the GLK 350 torque split is? Specifically 2015 year model. I went to test drive one at a dealership in Cleveland and was thoroughly disappointed when the salesman told me it was all time front wheel drive unless it started to lose traction..

googled "4matic torque split" and this was in the second hit.
The 4Matic of the C, E, S, CL, CLS, and GLK models has a mechanical core that splits the torque at a ratio of 45% front and 55% rear. It works through a multi-plate lock in the center differential, which has a base locking force of 37 lb-ft (50 Nm).
Did you really think the salesman knew anything technical? Generally they just make stuff up.
