  • Page 69 The actual benefits of the system for customers are apparent in Chassis the following areas: • Reduced lateral inclination (vehicle lean) during cornering. • Greater agility. • Improved driving performance. • Increased driving comfort. • Better off-road functionality. Operating Principle The entire system involves chassis components used to actively stabilize the vehicle.
  • Page 70 Chassis PDCC is an active roll stabilization system, which records the vehicle’s lateral inclination during cornering right from the start and reduces this considerably. This is done using active anti-roll bars on the front and rear axle, which ensure stabilization torques on both axles. This means that the active anti-roll bars build up specific forces to coun- teract the lateral inclination of the vehicle, depending on the steering lock and lateral acceleration.
  • Page 71 Design/Components Chassis PDCC includes a two-piece anti-roll bar with a hydraulic swivel motor, a high pressure oil pump with lines and power distributor, valve blocks for activating the swivel motors and a control unit for each axle. Anti-roll Bar With Swivel Motor The core elements of the system are the active anti-roll bars with hydraulic swivel motors, which are integrated on front and rear axle instead of the conventional mechanical anti-roll bars.
