BMW 5 Series: Adaptive chassis
Concept
This system reduces undesirable vehicle motion when using a dynamic driving style or traveling on uneven road surfaces.
General information
This enhances the driving dynamics and driving comfort depending on the road surface condition and driving style.
Tuning
The system offers several different damping settings.
The damping settings are assigned to the different driving modes of the Driving Dynamics Control.

Adaptive Drive
Concept
Adaptive Drive is an actively controlled chassis/ suspension. The system increases driving comfort and minimizes the lateral tilt when driving around curves.
General information
For active control, this system uses the available information, for instance from the navigation system or the Driving style analysis.
In particular in the ADAPTIVE driving mode this information is used to influence the adaptive chassis control and the active roll stabilization control. This further increases the agility and comfort of the vehicle.
The function may be restricted if the navigation data is invalid, outdated or not available, for example.
Active roll stabilization
Concept
The system reduces the lateral tilt of the vehicle that occurs during rapid driving in curves or during quick evasive maneuvers.
General information
The lateral tilt of the vehicle is balanced out by permanent adjustment on the front and rear axles. The vehicle is thus always stabilized.
Agility and driving comfort are increased under all driving conditions.
Tuning
The system offers several different tunings.
The tunings are assigned to the different driving modes of the Driving Dynamics Control.
