AERODYNAMICS

ACTIVE AERODYNAMICS - MOBILE
FRONT SPLITTER
GTA versions
The device fig. 43, which is automatically
managed according to the speed of the
car, provides greater stability at high
speeds, increasing the aerodynamic load
on the front.
An electromechanical system operates
the descent of the mobile front splitter
at high speeds.
WARNING The device does not work at
temperatures close to or below 0°C.

GTAm versions
The device fig. 43, which is automatically
managed according to the speed of the
car, provides greater stability at high
speeds, increasing the aerodynamic load
on the front.
An electromechanical system operates
the descent of the mobile front splitter
at high speeds.
WARNING The device does not work at
temperatures close to or below 0°C.
The splitter can also be manually
adjusted to two different positions:
most external ("extended") position (A)
fig. 44. This position further increases
the aerodynamic load on the front;
most internal ("retracted") position (B)
fig. 44.
In case of a failure of the mobile front
splitter, the generic failure icon along
with a dedicated message which
identifies the type of malfunction, is
shown on the instrument panel display.
