Chassis

Driving pleasure is fundamentally determined by the chassis. The chassis’ characteristics are the basis for steering feel, comfort of suspension and vehicle dynamics. Be it on full vehicle, system, or component level, or during the development of new functionalities – thanks to our full vehicle expertise and our unique test bench infrastructure we distinguish and solve not only the obvious but also the hidden issues of chassis systems.
