Active Control Systems

Attempting to achieve their ideal blend of attributes, many manufacturers find that refinement considerations limit how far vehicle dynamic optimisation can be taken. Active control technology - a field in which Lotus was a pioneer and continues to be world leader - offers potential solutions within those limitations.

This technology has the power to revolutionise vehicle dynamics. Lotus remains dedicated to pushing its boundaries.

Control systems - whether to increase a vehicle's capability or to enhance specific parameters - are an integral aspect of today's driving dynamics. Safety requirements have largely driven the adoption of these technologies.

In the future these same systems will, along with some emerging technologies, further enhance product differentiation. Vehicle character may even become definable via chip settings; highly personalised attributes will be possible.

Although these technologies will offer a wide range of exciting new opportunities, the underlying integrity of the vehicle will still be critical. Fundamental issues will remain that are of interest to everyone involved in developing successful driving dynamics.

Adaptive Road Noise Cancallation Pic Comprehensive integration will be the key design and development activity. And whether the technology is active or passive, we believe that it is essential that the focus of these endeavours remains the end-user.
