Logically speaking, Audi thinks that the endless ups and downs of automobile suspension are mature and can waste energy. It is developing the Electric Rotating Suspension (eROT), which will change the working mode of the suspension and recover excessive energy.
In the new system, the horizontal electromechanical rotary shock absorber replaces the traditional telescopic shock absorber, and because of its independent adjustment of compression and rebound stroke and active control ability to respond to surface changes almost instantly, it ensures a more sensitive riding experience.
Not only that, the new unit is more compact, so there is more space under the boots and hood.
However, in addition to more controllable driving, the new shock absorber skillfully absorbs the energy released in the form of heat in the traditional shock absorber and feeds it back to the 48-volt electrical system of the car, which may improve the economy and emissions by 65,438+00%.
As the system recovers more energy under worse road conditions, it seems to be a real boon for British motorists, and it may not be too far away.
EROT needs a 48V electrical system to work (this is Audi's latest electronic turbocharging system), but it has been put into use in Audi's entire product line and installed on the latest Q7. So eROT (if we were Audi, we would use different abbreviations) will appear in the next few years.
