Porsche Active Suspension
Management (PASM)
Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) is
a system for the active adjustment of shock ab-
sorbers. The variable shock absorber system indi-
vidually selects the relevant shock absorber stiffness
for each wheel depending on the driving situation
and driving conditions. Driving safety, agility, and
comfort are optimized.
Two different chassis setups can be selected by
pressing a button:
– "Normal Chassis"
– "Sport Chassis"
In normal mode, the vehicle is in a comfortable
sporty setting.
The "Sport Chassis" setting offers a distinctly sporty
shock absorber setting for use on race circuits, for
example.
Apart from the manual mode selection, the PASM
also adjusts the shock absorber setting toward more
sporty or more comfortable depending on the driv-
ing situation.
Select PASM mode
