The main attraction in the F 400 Carving concept study is a system that varies the camber angle on the outer wheels between zero and 20 degrees, depending on the road situation. When the two-seater is cornering, the outer wheel tilts inwards, leaving only the inner area of these tires in contact with the road. Used in conjunction with newly developed tires, it provides 30 percent more lateral stability than a conventional system with a fixed camber setting and standard rubber. This system enhances active safety, since better lateral stability equals improved road adhesion and greater cornering stability.
