Increasing rear squat for better traction

Under acceleration and
braking, the rear squat, which
is caused by weight transfer,
improves traction

The position of the pivot point
influences the ability to squat

It can be controlled with softer
shocks, but this causes
drawbacks on suspension
capabilities and comfort.

However, it can be controlled
with geometry by adjusting the
height of pivot point

By lowering pivot point we
have reduced the amount of
force required to squat
Benefit:

New lower pivot
point
Gives better traction and
allows the suspension to be
fine tuned for comfort and
performance.
Double A-arm with dive-control geometry

New double A-arm front
suspension geometry with divecontrol geometry

Increased suspension travel to
9 inches

Uses a shortened spindle for
reduced kickback

Uses a reduced kingpin axis to
keep the vehicle in straight line
when braking

A more comfortable and
predictable ride
Visco-lok and Visco-lok QE front differential
• Easy to steer when the differential is locking up
• Automatic locking differential; easy to use
• Progressive engagement and high torque capability
• Allows turns without inducing driveline wind-up or wheel hop
• 100% locking capability with no rev or speed limiter
Transfer
Dynamic Power Steering (DPS)

ONLY rider-selectable assist
levels power-steering on the
market

3 modes (MIN, MED, MAX)

Direct-link magnetic field
sensors for quicker response to
steering input than competitors

Less kickback, more feedback
because of higher final gear
ratio than competitor's systems

High capacity fade-resistant 50amp motor
Increased braking performance
• New outboard (in wheels) hydraulic disc
braking system inspired by race-proven
setup on Renegade
• 214mm disc brakes with twin-piston
calipers
• New single, rear twin-piston hydraulic disc
brake (214mm) in right rear wheel
• Fastest acceleration combined with
efficient braking
Reduced unsprung weight
• New center-less, cast-aluminum wheels featuring computer-optimized design
• Computer-optimized to increase strength where needed, while removing weight where no material is
needed.
New level of vehicle dynamic
The result is improved ride quality, more comfort for the rider, more
traction, better cornering, and better directional control
