The adaptive structure of M is matched to a chassis lowered by 10 mm and reacts more precisely to steering maneuvers. A main control unit always sets the stage for compression and extension of the four optimal shock tires. The reaction time is so low that when the front wheel passes over a pit the rear shock is adjusted before the rear wheel to reach the pit.
2009 BMW Z4
The online feature in which the adaptive structure of M varies the power is adjustable cushioning in the new BMW Z4 through the Dynamic Driving Control. The Dynamic Driving Control is controlled by a button on the central console, located near the shifter or gear selector. Lightly pressing the button the driver can select between a "Normal", "SPORT" and "SPORT +".
