Performance upgrades include lowering the standard
ride height of the car by 15 millimeters and fitment of 21 - inch alloy wheels with performance tyres.
The idea was that computer - controlled suspension would keep
the ride height of the car perfectly level at all times, giving massive benefits to grip and aerodynamics.
This car and similar photos you have seen probably have Height adjustable suspension this allows
the ride height of the car to be changed on demand.
They record how
the ride height of the car changes, how that changes in relation to the aerodynamic effects, and how the steering balance then changes, and we've made a lot of discoveries from this data.
Car adjustable suspension could mean two things, either adjusting
the ride height of the car or changing the handling characteristics.
Ford have also beefed up the suspension and anti roll bars, further adding stability and resisting the roll that is common after
the ride height of a car is increased, but more on this later.
Mechanically, Hyundai has altered
the ride height of the car and raised it by 20 mm over the i20 to give it a ground clearance figure of 190 mm.
The air springs also allow you to increase
the ride height of the car.
You also get an Off - Road mode which increases
the ride height of the car by 1.5 - inches allowing it to pass over off - road terrain without scraping the underbelly.
