To increase driving dynamics and driving comfort. For an outstanding driving sensation, the advanced suspension package contains active roll stabilisation as well as quattro with sport differential.
The active roll stabilisation reduces body roll when cornering. At the same time, the vehicle body is calmed when driving over bumps on one side of the road, thus increasing ride comfort. Active distribution of the roll torque between the front and rear axles additionally enhances driving dynamics and stability. The system operates with active electromechanically operated compensation units on the anti-roll bars at the front and rear axles and is supplied by the 48V electrical system with energy.
The all-wheel steering also enhances handling and driving comfort with additional rear axle steerability. At low speeds, the steering effort is reduced and the vehicle’s turning circle made smaller by turning the rear wheels in the opposite direction. This greatly enhances the manoeuvrability of the Audi SQ8¹. The all-wheel steering also facilitates the parking process with park assist. When driving at higher speeds, targeted adjustment is performed on the steering angle at the rear axle by steering in the same direction. Steering wheel movements are converted rapidly and precisely. In turn, this improves the steering responsiveness and stability of the Audi SQ8¹. Overall, the all-wheel steering allows easier manoeuvring, sporty driving behaviour and superb, comfortable steering behaviour.
