Lamborghini has developed the ‘monofuselage’, an aeronautics-inspired monocoque concept made entirely of carbon fibre. The chassis will feature in the LB744, the successor to the Aventador, with a 100% composite front structure, increased strength and torsional stiffness, and reduced weight
Delve into some of the LB744’s innovations, including how the ‘monofuselage’ aeronautics-inspired monocoque carbon fibre concept offers durability, torsional stiffness and weight reduction
The newly developed cubiX software – ZF’s first pure software product –controls all chassis systems to achieve a harmonious blend of smooth acceleration and braking, precise steering, and balanced damping. The intelligent networking of all chassis systems can enable optimally controlled longitudinal, lateral and vertical dynamics
With a diverse range of models, many variations of track widths and wheels, and an increasing number of driver-assistance systems, CV production requires flexibility for measuring and adjusting chassis geometry at the end of line
