More on Landrover ACE system - from Atlanta Journal Constitution The neatest part of the Series II is an optional system called ACE, for Active Cornering Enhancement. You know how sport utilities, because of their tall profile, tend to lean in turns and curves? A lot of drivers and riders find this unsettling. Working via a computer connected to sensors in the four body pillars of the Series II, ACE reduces and, in some cases, eliminates that lean. The computer works via hydraulic lines connected to front and rear piston/levers to actively counter the lateral tilt of the vehicle body -- up to a point. It's amazing how different the ride and stability can be in an ACE vs. non-ACE Discovery. Some riders prone to carsickness might do quite well in an ACE-equipped vehicle. The lack of sway is that palpable. Also at Land Rover, there's a new active suspension ------------------------- One could almost substitute COAST for ACE in this article except for one important distinction. ACE is actually being used. Regards, Dave

ACE made by Delphi, a division of GM. Well there goes GM as an OEM. It seems this 'active' system is superior to COAST's adaptive system. mondialauto.tm.fr Suspension first for new Land Rover Discovery The new Land Rover Discovery, the latest version of one of the world's most respected 4x4 vehicles, will be offered with Active Cornering Enhancement designed in partnership with Delphi Automotive Systems. The system significantly increases the resistance to roll during cornering but without the negative affect on ride comfort that would result from stiffer springs and conventional stabiliser bars. This is the first application of active roll control to a Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV) and the first truly active system (ie not based on vehicle positional data) on any vehicle. The Delphi components are manufactured in France with module assembly at Delphi's Chassis Systems facility in the UK. It was announced on August 3rd that GM plans to launch Delphi as a fully independent, publicly traded company during 1999. Delphi is currently a business sector of General Motors and will remain a major supplier to GM after the separation of the two companies.
