This is technology, materials engineering, innovative thinking, and good ol’-
fashioned American sweat coming together for one sweet ride. The frame —
created from Advanced High-Strength Steel, the same stuff used in submarine
hulls — is now stronger, quieter, and lighter. Fully boxed, it adds critical
crossmembers and frame sections — some rated as high as 80,000 psi. Performance, handling, and stability show across-the-board improvements, thanks
to advanced CAE (Computer-Aided Engineering) modeling techniques. But the
stunning news is the all-new, available Active-Level
TM
Four-Corner Air Suspension
System, offering unprecedented response and control for virtually any driving
condition — and with a specialized Aero Mode for cruising.
