| Tesla's Adaptive Suspension is essentially "adjustable suspension": > new control settings for Standard and Sport modes allow the driver to adjust the suspension for a smoother or more “road aware” driving feel. Originally a move away from the control structure of the older Smart Air Suspension, the Adaptive Suspension is raised and lowered based on preference selections in the control panel (Never, Always, or Highway) rather than through ride height by increments. The Audi system does that and a bunch more: - raises the car for ingress and egress - It's also meant to absorb the road's pitches and dips by prepping the chassis where appropriate. - In comfort mode, the front camera pairs up with the steering, which allows the car to feel any unevenness and signal the system to respond accordingly. - Audi also claims that a "curve-tilting function" cuts down on lateral acceleration felt by occupants. - "Upon entering a curve, it elevates the side of the body on the outside of the curve and lowers the other side, thereby tilting it into the curve up to three degrees," and more. |
