DYNAMIC BODY CONTROL
AIR BODY CONTROL
Using the DYNAMIC SELECT Switch, the driver is able to change the vehicle's damping properties. The adjustment options provide a wide spread between comfortable, sporty and very sporty configurations. The driver has a choice between 3 stages, "Comfort", "Sport" and "Sport+". The suspension is also lowered by 15 mm.
The multi-chamber air suspension system works in unison with continuously variable damper control to ensure a very high standard of ride comfort and driving dynamics. The damping at each wheel is adapted to the current driving situation and road surface condition. This is done rapidly and precisely using separate valves for the compression and rebound of the dampers. The occupants enjoy a soft basic suspension setup and the secure feeling of high handling stability as speed increases. A harder spring rate, for example when cornering and braking, effectively reduces rolling movements.
The damping effect of the shock absorbers is increased in “Sport” and “Sport+” modes. Lowering and tauter suspension configuration facilitate a more dynamic driving style whilst comfort remains at the same high level even over long distances. Since the damping system works steplessly and the tuning for each wheel occurs individually, both driving safety and ride comfort are improved. >>465-55-41708
Via DYNAMIC SELECT, AIR BODY CONTROL can be made more comfortable or sporty in the 3 stages “Comfort”, “Sport” and “Sport+”. Thanks to the pneumatic all-round self-levelling suspension, the vehicle maintains a constant level irrespective of the load. >>465-55-40382
