The success of the Audi Q5 was not foreseeable. Well over 1,5 million vehicles sold - someone should first imitate it. Many of the coveted mid-size SUVs are now in the second or third hand, so the demand for sporty options for the mostly younger owners is increasing. Reason enough for the H&R engineers to lend a hand again and expand the delivery program for the Audi Q5 with threaded springs. While retaining the standard dampers, the coil springs, also known as "HVF spring systems", allow the vehicle height to be continuously adjusted after installation, according to the driver's personal taste or needs. Finally, the use of dirt roads is likely to play a subordinate role. On the track, however, the lowered center of gravity, a remarkable 40 to 60mm on the front axle and 45 to 70 millimeters at the rear, provided a completely new driving experience, especially in long, fast corners.
The body's tendency to roll is significantly reduced, but the necessary driving comfort is retained. And by the way, this measure underlines the beefy character of the Q5. Of course, the conventional H&R sport springs with 40 or 60 mm lowering, the classic coilover suspension with special H&R dampers and the Trak + wheel spacers made of high-tensile aluminum, which H&R offers from 20 to 100 millimeters per axle, also remain on offer. All H&R components always have the required parts certificates and are "Made in Germany". H&R HVF systems are only available through selected sales partners.
