Not exact matches
Each piece has individual elements that are able to open and close independently
of each other, allowing the car to either go into low drag mode or increase the amount
of aero on a side to «
aero vector» the car through a turn.
You feel the increased grip effects
of the Performante's «
aero -
vectoring» technology over supercars with less downforce, such as the McLaren 720S, though it didn't come close to the
aero - assassin grip
of the Ford GT.
Instead
of brake -
vectoring, which essentially brakes the inside wheel to help a car turn in faster,
aero -
vectoring uses the car's down force and aerodynamics to help turn the car in faster through the front splitter's flaps opening and closing the hollow forged - carbon wing.
Unlike active
aero systems that help the car brake, like those
of the McLaren 650S or P1, Lamborghini's ALA helps
aero -
vector the car for faster cornering speeds.
While the benefit is totally symmetrical under hard braking,
aero vectoring automatically shifts the load to the inner rear wheel when cornering at the limit
of adhesion.
«When it detects the car is running wide open, ALA opens the flaps and admits air through ridges underneath the wing, reducing drag; the flaps can also open independently to boost downforce and, subsequently, traction on a particular rear wheel for a sort
of aero torque
vectoring.»
Sant» Agata Bolognese / Geneva, 6 March 2017 — Automobili Lamborghini unveils the Huracán Perfomante at the Geneva Motor Show, combining new lightweight technologies, active aerodynamics with
aero vectoring and a new set - up
of chassis, all - wheel - drive system and further improved powertrain.
The CDC system coordinates all
of the vehicle's available active systems (stability control, torque
vectoring, Alfa Active suspension system and active
aero front splitter), using predictive - type dynamic models to deliver balanced, safe and natural driving, thus optimizing performance and drivability.
There's also an
aero vectoring mode that adds downforce to one side
of the car in corners to give more grip and therefore reduce the amount
of steering input needed.
