Sentences with phrase «axle steering allows»

Not exact matches

Meaty steering and powerful, progressive brakes add to the appeal, while the clever four - wheel drive system sends enough torque to the rear axle to allow you to trim your line with throttle.

But it's not on this list purely because it will drift, as the rear - drive format also allows genuine throttle adjustability allowing you use the rear axle to help steer the car in the direction you wish.

As in the last generation of the super SUVs, the 2015 BMW X5 M and X6 M employ staggered tires that allow the vehicles to strike a balance between precise, communicative steering at the front axle and sticky rubber for stability at the rear.

Where the engine's greater mid-range torque allows you to give the driven axle more to do as you unwind the steering and exit a bend, those cup tyres reply with even greater adhesion, stability and traction than a regular M4 has.

Changes allowing that include a stiffer suspension, new steering calibration and rear - axle diff optimization.

• Intensification of the typical MINI go - kart feeling with extensively revised suspension technology, reduced weight and increased rigidity; new single - joint spring strut axle with aluminium swivel bearing and also axle supports and wishbones made of high - strength steel; new multilink rear axle also in optimised lightweight construction and space - saving geometry; refined electromechanical power steering now with Servotronic as standard; Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) as standard including Dynamic Traction Control (DTC) and Electronic Differential Lock Control (EDLC), in the MINI Cooper S also including Performance Control; new spring and damper set - up with triple - path support bearings; Dynamic Damper Control optionally available for the first time in MINI; refined brake system, adapted to increased driving performance; light alloy wheels in 15 - inch or 16 - inch (MINI Cooper S) format as standard; light allow wheels optionally available up to 18 inches.

What's more, on twistier roads, the weight over the rear axle results in alarmingly light steering, allowing very little confidence if you start to push on.

It comprises two electro - mechanical actuators at both sides of the rear axle (instead of conventional control arms) that allow the steering angle of the rear wheels to be varied by up to about 1.5 degrees.

It is specially adapted to integrate with the active Lamborghini Rear - wheel Steering (LRS) on the rear axle: two separate actuators react in five milliseconds to driver's steering movements, allowing a real - time angle and cornering stiffness adjSteering (LRS) on the rear axle: two separate actuators react in five milliseconds to driver's steering movements, allowing a real - time angle and cornering stiffness adjsteering movements, allowing a real - time angle and cornering stiffness adjustment.

According to the press release, the rear steer allows more torque to be distributed — up to 90 % in Sport mode — through the rear axle without compromising stability.

In Normal and Sport modes the car just goes beautifully neutral as you unwind the heavy steering and squeeze the accelerator, already feeling more directionally poised than the four - wheel - drive hot hatch norm and without allowing the rear axle to run riot, or imposing on you for a significant steering correction.
