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 />

The compromises in chassis tuning<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 />
