What do you call something that’s ground-breaking? Something that’s prepared to leave
the tried and trusted behind, to reinvent it. Knowing that the real challenge always lies
ahead of one. Revolutionary? Innovative? Visionary? We call it magic – MAGIC BODY
CONTROL. This newly developed chassis technology sets itself up in advance to deal
with the road conditions ahead. One could almost say, it relieves the road of its pock-marks
and imperfections. This view of the immediate future is achieved through a stereo
camera positioned behind the rear-view mirror, which observes the road from two
perspectives. The huge amounts of data created are transferred to and processed by the
control unit for the chassis, in real time. With an accuracy of one to two millimetres
at 120 km/h and 25 images per second. The chassis accordingly regulates the amount
of oil needed in each of the separately controllable spring struts. In this way the bumps
in the road can be almost completely absorbed. At a speed of 130 km/h. Even when
cornering, the system always knows what lies ahead. If you’ve experienced it, you’ll
want to write letters of thanks to our engineers – which you can do, on the back seat of
the car, at speed, with a fountain pen. Thanks to MAGIC BODY CONTROL.
