The compromises in chassis tuning<br />
<strong>Torque</strong> vectoring alternatives<br />
lower center of gravity<br />
torque vectoring<br />
Benefit<br />
► less load transfer improves traction and<br />
agility<br />
Compromises<br />
► chassis needs to be adapted<br />
► stiffer springs affect com<strong>for</strong>t<br />
► less ground clearance<br />
Benefits<br />
► torque vectoring does not affect<br />
driving com<strong>for</strong>t<br />
► chassis tuning can be focused more<br />
on aspects like com<strong>for</strong>t and stability,<br />
since agility and traction are already<br />
<strong>improved</strong><br />

<strong>Torque</strong> vectoring alternatives<br />
increased camber angle at front wheels<br />
torque vectoring<br />
Benefit<br />
► more grip at front axle: increased agility<br />
Compromises<br />
► loss of driving stability at high speeds<br />
► no <strong>vehicle</strong> <strong>dynamics</strong> control<br />
► tire wear<br />
Benefits<br />
► agility improvements are situation<br />
dependent (sensor in<strong>for</strong>mation)<br />
► agility at low speeds, simultaneously<br />
stability at high speeds<br />
► adaptive control on dry or wet<br />
asphalt and low-μ<br />
