Smart Volkswagens are called "Arteon". VW turned the rather down-to-earth Passat base into a real eye-catcher, whether it's a coupé or a shooting brake! And anyone who owns the "R" will be happy about the iconic amount of power on all fours. Speaking of "down-to-earth": With the now available H&R coilover kit, the beau from Wolfsburg crouches down on the asphalt, as befits a sporty automobile icon by definition. The tested adjustment range allows an individual lowering of the vehicle's center of gravity by up to 40 mm on the front axle and 50 mm at the rear.

also Trak + wheel spacers available

More direct steering, reduced rolling movements and the compressed space between wheel and body are on the plus side of the chassis upgrade. The payload remains at the standard level, the driving comfort is suitable for long distances, but the look is really stunning! Optionally, H&R Trak+ wheel spacers made of high-tensile aluminum promise the perfect wheelbase. Either silver or black anodised, this means that standard and accessory wheels can be aligned with millimeter precision on the fender edges. As usual with H&R, all products are supplied with the required parts certificate and are Made in Germany!
