I’ve driven many new Mercedes models and have come to the conclusion that this brand does steering better than anyone right now. From a Metris Van to a GLE…MB steering has a way of being light and very accurate. Very little steering effort and corrections are needed. Kind of weird not many journalists mention this as far as I know.

Does anyone know what makes their steering so good? Mechanical parts or calibration?

    So true. When I drive hard, on my MINI I can feel how the tyre sidewall gives up, how the front inner wheel is overloaded even before I start significantly understeering. On the Merc I don’t have that many fine details. It is more like “sliding: yes/no”.

      Probably helps that your Mini is a performance application whereas the Merc is the most basic C Class available
