Improving Ride Comfort with Special Springs
Special springs are opening up a path to more comfortable rides and increased car lifespan.
Comfort is one of the most important aspects of car performance. A car does not merely take a person from one place to another. It must do this while keeping commuters safe. The comfort of the ride plays an important factor to safety. The shocks and vibrations generated by bumps and potholes on the road can lead to injuries and fatigue which can increase likelihood of the driver making mistakes that can lead to accidents. Unlike acceleration and maximum speed, there is quantitative measure for comfort. You might have to try out different brands and models in order to determine the level of comfort being offered. But similar to power and torque, the comfort of the ride also declines as the vehicle ages.
The suspension system which is the primary provider of comfort can quickly deteriorate of if the car is always running at near maximum loading capacity. The springs for car were never designed to handle so much weight. As the springs deteriorate, ride comfort will suffer.
Advances in automotive technology has opened up a solution to this problem. Special springs that boast new materials and structure are able to remain rigid even when the car is constantly always under near-maximal load while able to redirect forces from points of the chassis that take the most beating.
