Intelligent and plug-and-play

Intelligent adaptation of spring travel, sporty look by lowering up to max. 30 mm, improved driving dynamics through reduced roll, and the best of it all: the wiring harness, is not only reliable but quick and easy to plug or to return the suspension to its original condition and settings at any time.

That's what Carlsson can suggest for Mercedes Benz models with Airmatic and ABC suspension

The Carlsson C-Tronic® product range includes electronic control modules for a variety of applications, such as engine control and supercharger or turbo control, as well as the control of active and semi-active suspension systems.

The solution offered under the Carlsson C-Tronic Suspension brand has been improved in several important respects and thus meets the high expectations of an intelligent electronic suspension control system.

Ride comfort - As a rule, conventional systems for lowering vehicles with electronic suspension systems do no more than lower the centre of gravity. By contrast, the Carlsson C-Tronic Suspension not only lowers the centre of gravity but also, thanks to its sophisticated technology, reacts intelligently to the changing road conditions.

On poor surfaces where the suspension jounces continuously, the vehicle height is automatically raised to ensure sufficient spring travel for even ride comfort. This demand-responsive system is controlled electronically and automatically so the driver enjoys a high level of ride comfort in all situations. The permanent data synchronisation with pre-set values ensures split-second adaptation to the road conditions prevailing.

Spring travel - The Carlsson C-Tronic SUSPENSION also ensures that the vehicle is not further lowered at speeds of over 120 km/h as programmed in the standard system. This guarantees sufficient spring travel and that the ride height does not fall below the minimum level.

Quick and easy installation - Thanks to the tried and tested C-Tronic connection technology for the wiring harness, installing and removing the Carlsson C-Tronic SUSPENSION is not only reliable but quick and easy. For customers, this means only a short fitting time and, therefore, low workshop costs. Furthermore, the vehicle can be returned to its original condition at any time.
