And even in its most basic form, the 2014 M235i boasts, «
specific elastokinematics for the front suspension,» so be sure to mention that at cocktail parties.

elastokinematics of the four - link front suspension and the trapezoidal - link rear suspension have been adapted to the new level of performance.
Its chassis featuring a four link front and an all - new unique to the Coupe multi-link rear suspension has been completely overhauled though complete with new steering knuckles, wider tracks, stiffer
elastokinematic tuning and greater negative camber.
The suspension has also been given the AMG treatment — aside from specifically - tuned spring / damper units and larger stabilisers, the car's three - link front suspension gets stiffer steering knuckles, more rigid bearings and totally
new elastokinematics, while the four - link rear axle is new, with geometry and setup unique to the model.

Stiffer bearings for the control arms
guarantee elastokinematics for a sporty performance; lateral and camber rigidity are clearly enhanced.
The potential inherent in the rear axle design — based on the race - derived principle of the rear axle subframe being bolted to the body — and the even more precisely
calculated elastokinematics for the front axle are exploited to the full in the models featuring the Competition Package, with the aim of enhancing driving precision.
The aim was to develop an innovative, minimum - cost rear axle design based on a twist - beam rear axle which basically features the same performance as a multilink rear suspension when it comes to kinematic and
elastokinematic characteristics — without being significantly more expensive.
The specially
calibrated elastokinematics, the large axle sub frame mounting and supporting system, the compression strut connecting the suspension and body and the high structural stiffness combined with low unsprung masses create an excellent overall balance between agility and comfort.
While the axle and
elastokinematics correspond to that of the BMW 4 Series Coupe, suspension and damping were tailored exclusively to the four - door version.
Subtle adjustments to camber, toe - in and
elastokinematics result in a neutral chassis and very balanced handling.
While AMG - specific
elastokinematics on the 4 - link front axle and multi-link independent rear suspension make for greater directness when a dynamic driving style is adopted, the AMG sports suspension based on MAGIC BODY CONTROL ensures the proverbial Mercedes long - distance comfort.
Custom - configured suspension and damping systems as well as special front
suspension elastokinematics are adapted both to the performance characteristics of the six - cylinder engine and to the specific requirements of the open body style.
It is imbued with new steering knuckles, a revised subframe rigidly attached to body structure at the rear for higher camber stiffness, larger diameter anti-roll bars and what AMG describes as thoroughly
revised elastokinematic properties, including firmer springs, dampers and bearings.
Newly
developed elastokinematics guarantee the comfort expected from the E-Class combined with high precision and vehicle dynamics.
The C - Class Coupé rides on the same four - link front and five - link rear suspension system used by the C - Class saloon, albeit with
unique elastokinematic properties and a 15 mm lower ride height.
Up front, the four - link front axle has specially designed steering knuckles and load bearing joints, while the negative camber and
elastokinematics make the SUV more rigid and agile.
The suspension developed specifically for the BMW X5 M and the BMW X6 M with its double - track control arm front axle and Integral IV rear axle offers M - specific
elastokinematics thanks to stiffer track control arm mounts and hydraulic tiebar mounts at the front as well as stiffer axle support mounts at the rear.
Porsche's extensive motorsport experience and know - how are also reflected by some technical details for the GT3 RS: the chassis is track - optimized, ball joints on all arms provide greater precision than
conventional elastokinematic bearings, and you get 20 - inch lightweight wheels with newly developed 265/35 sports tires on the front axle for better agility, and 21 ‑ inch wheels with 325/30 tires at the rear axle for improved traction.
For enhanced driving dynamics, the three - link front suspension is provided with stiffer steering knuckles and totally
new elastokinematics.
Stability and precision of handling are enhanced by the
optimised elastokinematics and the rigid connection between the subframe and the body.
Other measures include AMG - specific wheel carriers,
elastokinematic tuning optimized for vehicle dynamics and higher negative camber.

The three - link front axle has been provided with stiffer steering knuckles,
improved elastokinematics and increased negative camber.
It features a new axle carrier, strengthened wheel carriers,
stiffer elastokinematics and offers more negative camber as well as much greater rigidity.
The X5 / X6 suspension system, with its double - wishbone / multi-link front and Integral IV (4 - link) rear suspension, is modified by BMW M with
specific elastokinematics (bushings and other flexible elements), more rigid transverse links, firmer hydraulic cushions at the front trailing lower arms, a firmer mounting of the rear subframe to the body structure, and a 10 - mm (0.4 - in.)
This includes individually configured spring and shock absorber systems, and specific
elastokinematics for the front suspension.
Modified ball joints, firmer shock absorbers, new rubber bearings and carefully tuned
elastokinematics have enabled the engineers to minimize vibrations and improve ride comfort.
However, the springs and damping, axle kinematics and
elastokinematics have all been tailored precisely to the character of the new convertible.
It works with a firmer spring / shock absorber set - up and stiffer anti-roll bars, and its kinematics /
elastokinematics (bushings and bearings) have also been tweaked to suit the new BMW 4 Series Convertible.
The track enlargement, with larger wheels ranging from 16 to 19 inches in size, and extensive changes in the area of
elastokinematics were key areas of the developers» work.
With regard to the springs, shock absorbers,
elastokinematics, and the anti-roll bars, the RS 5 chassis exhibits a sporty configuration and renders the body 20 millimeters (0.79 inches) lower than that of the Audi A5.
Double - joint Spring Strut axle with M - specific
elastokinematics, small, negative steering roll radius, anti-dive
The spring / shock absorber units and
elastokinematics have been retuned to suit the altered axle weights and modified axle geometry.
One of the keys to agile handling is the axle technology: for enhanced driving dynamics, the McPherson front axle on the GLA 45 AMG is fitted with stiffer steering knuckles and new
elastokinematics.

elastokinematics (bushings and bearings) have also been tweaked to suit the new BMW 4 Series Coupe.
It hooks the boots up to the car through the same rear axle AMG developed for the Coupe, so it has a new rear axle carrier and its wheel bearings sit 25 mm further out than in the sedan or the wagon, plus it has new wheel carriers, more negative camber and
its elastokinematic tuning is a lot stiffer.
