Original Equipment Ride Control

CES is a semi-active suspension system that continu-ously adjusts damping levels according to road anddriving conditions. At the heart of the CES is an advanced valve system, developed with Öhlins Racing.The valves – integrated with an electronic controllerand chassis sensors – work together to deliver the most advanced damping characteristics.

Our Acceleration Sensitive Damping (ASD) shock absorber solves the challenge of delivering both a soft, comfortable ride and firm vehicle handling. The award-winning ASDtechnology is a mechanical valve system that instantaneously changes damping force to adjust vehicle ride to bumps and changes in the road surface.

Frequency Dependent Damping is a next generationshock absorber. It is environmentally friendly – uses no oil – and minimizes the compromise between rideand handling. A frequency dependent damping shockabsorber can be mounted in any position and has amore consistent damping performance over a widerange of temperatures.

13

CES was first commercialized on the 2003 Volvo S60R and V70R performance vehicles offering sport car handling with luxury sedan comfort.
