Brabus Ride Control Suspension For Mercedes G-Class


German tuner BRABUS has Releases their Mercedes G Class BRABUS Ride Control system. The system uses replacement gas-pressure shocks that can be switched between �extra comfortable� and �sporty comfortable� settings, from inside the vehicle � in just five milliseconds.

The Ride Control Suspension from BRABUS tries to lessen the roughness of the G-Class ride while still maintaining its off-road credentials. BRABUS claims the new suspension kit will be particularly advantageous at low speeds and on rugged terrain by providing a softer ride. For higher speeds, the stiffer setting on the kit provides for an improved and safe handling.

The custom BRABUS Ride Control Suspension comprises newly developed gas-pressure shocks for front and rear axle that replace the production components. An elegant aluminum control switch, stylishly integrated into the center console in front of the shifter, lets drivers choose between �extra comfortable� and �sporty comfortable� damper settings.

Upon engine start the system automatically pre-selects the last active setting prior to engine stop. The sport mode is indicated by a blue-illuminated selector switch.

The BRABUS Ride Control custom suspension is available for all Mercedes G-Class models regardless of body style from the G 350 CDI to the G 500 (US G550) and the G 55 AMG.

The Smooth-Ride Suspension for all G-Class Models:

The New Electronically Adjustable BRABUS Ride Control Suspension

Many owners of a Mercedes G-Class long for a smoother ride without compromising the high level of driving safety: The new innovative push-button Ride Control Suspension from BRABUS combines exceptional ride comfort with sporty handling and ample safety reserves.

The custom BRABUS Ride Control Suspension comprises newly developed gas-pressure shocks for front and rear axle that replace the production components. An elegant aluminum control switch, stylishly integrated into the center console in front of the shifter, lets drivers choose between �extra comfortable' and �sporty comfortable' damper settings.

The BRABUS Ride Control controller commands the electronically controlled valves in each shock absorber to switch to the selected mode and thus to dampen softer or firmer. Switching damper rates takes just five milliseconds and can be done while the vehicle is moving.

Upon engine start the system automatically pre-selects the last active setting prior to engine stop. The sport mode is indicated by a blue-illuminated selector switch.

The advantages of the innovative BRABUS suspension concept for the G-Class are apparent: In normal driving mode it provides notably higher ride comfort than the production car, which is especially beneficial at low speeds as well as on rough roads or in terrain. At higher speeds selecting the firmer sport damper settings offer more dynamic handling and further increased safety reserves.

The BRABUS Ride Control custom suspension is available for all Mercedes G-Class models regardless of body style from the G 350 CDI to the G 500 (US G550) and the G 55 AMG.
