New System Description

Dynamic Drive





The design of the Dynamic Drive is the same as the system fitted in the E65. The function of the Dynamic Drive in the E60 is identical to the function of the Dynamic Drive in the E65. The disadvantage of a passive stabilizer bar is that the basic suspension hardens in the case of straight ahead driving and one sided jouncing. This reduces comfort.
Dynamic Drive has two active stabilizer bars which have a positive effect on the roll tilt angle and handling.
Split stabilizer bars on the axles act as the basis of the Dynamic Drive. The halves of the stabilizer bars are joined by way of a hydraulic oscillating motor. One half of the stabilizer bar is connected to the oscillating motor shaft while the other is connected to the oscillating motor housing.
When you are driving straight ahead, the system improves suspension comfort because the stabilizer bar halves are noninteracting and therefore do not harden the basic suspension when suspension is used on one side.
