jfischetti Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I'm waiting for my 2020 Aviator Reserve I and was looking at the ordering guide today.... It seems that if you get AWD with the Reserve (as I am) you get "Adaptive Suspension and the Noise Reduction Module and Sound Insulation Pack". My question is, what features does the Adaptive Suspension offer you. It must not be the " Road Preview" version of that offering, but i'm curious what portion of "Adaptive" are you getting with this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AutomotiveAddicts Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Adaptive Suspension gives you the coil springs with dampers that are electronically controlled (dampened) from detected movements. A very common feature among many vehicles. In the Excite mode the dampers will firm up slightly. Separately - With the Dynamic Handling Package, an option, you get the air suspension system, which utilizes air springs (specialized air bladders at each corner) along with adaptive dampening that is manipulated by additional control units due to the road preview that reads the road via a camera mounted above the front review mirror. The Air Suspension system also has other features for lowering during entry/exit, raising in the Deep Conditions drive mode, lowering in Excite Mode, and auto-lowering around 70 mph for better stability at highway speeds. Supposedly there are additional actuators as part of the dynamic handling package for modulation of the wheels when a rise or dip is detcted in the road to pre-load the system for a proactive adjustment to smooth out the road imperfection. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
