Redefining agility and comfort – the DCC Pro chassis in detail

The all-new Volkswagen Tayron

Electronically controlled chassis. The new Tayron will be available with the latest generation of adaptive chassis control as an option: DCC Pro. This electronic active damping control reacts continuously to the road conditions and driving situation and takes into account parameters such as steering, braking and acceleration. The ideal damping is calculated for each wheel and is adjusted via the shock absorbers within fractions of a second. The driver has the option of individually adjusting the DCC Pro system to settings ranging from very comfortable to very sporty. The lateral dynamic components of the adaptive chassis control are coordinated and optimised by the Tayron’s standard vehicle dynamics manager. It controls the functions of the electronic differential locks (XDS) and – with DCC Pro on board – also the lateral dynamic components of the controlled dampers for optimum driving comfort and outstanding driving dynamics at all times. Compared with the familiar DCC from other models with conventional single-valve shock absorbers, the dampers in the Tayron’s new DCC Pro are equipped with two valves. This change is accompanied by an adapted control algorithm for separate rebound and compression stage control. The faster two-valve shock absorbers help to achieve a better and quieter connection between the body and chassis at the same time as optimised driving dynamics thanks to the rebound and compression stages now being controlled by two separate valves. DCC Pro once more significantly increases the spread between the dynamic and comfort characteristics. Important for an all-terrain SUV such as the Tayron: thanks to DCC Pro, drivers will enjoy an extremely pleasant driving experience and a sense of security even on poor road surfaces. Due to the reduced body vibrations, the body is also horizontally centred for extremely high levels of comfort.

The specified fuel consumption and emission data does not refer to a single vehicle and is not part of the offer but is only intended for comparison between different types of vehicles. Additional equipment and accessories (additional components, tyre formats, etc.) can alter relevant vehicle parameters such as weight, rolling resistance and aerodynamics, affecting the vehicle's fuel consumption, power consumption, CO2 emissions and driving performance values in addition to weather and traffic conditions and individual driving behavior.

Further information on official fuel consumption data and official specific CO2 emissions for new passenger cars can be found in the "Guide to fuel economy, CO2 emissions and power consumption for new passenger car models", which is available free of charge from all sales dealerships and from DAT Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH, Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, D-73760 Ostfildern, Germany and at www.dat.de/co2.
