While motorsport engineering has always been a part of BMW’s DNA, these days drivers want more versatility in their luxury cars. With BMW M adaptive suspension, BMW has managed to deliver both the comfort you demand and the sharp handling that has been a hallmark of the brand for generations. With several new BMW models at our Fort Myers dealership, M Adaptive Suspension is included or available, so let’s learn about this advanced suspension technology so you know just what you’re getting.

Change Suspension Settings on the Fly

With the new M Adaptive Suspension setup on your new BMW, you’ll have the ability to change the feel of your BMW while you’re on the road. You can change damping stiffness to adjust how your car handles bumps and undulations in the road. You can even adaptive body roll characteristics to improve grip and ride quality along the way. And with adaptive steering feel, you can have a lighter or heavier steering wheel, depending on what feels right to you.

How BMW M Adaptive Suspension Works

With the BMW M Adaptive Suspension, electronically-controlled shocks allow for nearly infinite customization within their operating range. Unlike aftermarket coilover systems, the M Adaptive Suspension setup gives you stepless adjustment of damping with electro-magnetic valves. In other words, rather than clicking between settings, the M Adaptive setup acts as a slider, letting you settle into the precise feel that feels best for your driving experience. You can even adjust the front and rear settings individually to change the handling balance of your car. Soften the front and stiffen the rear to improve rotation through a corner, or do the opposite to reduce oversteer and enjoy a more forgiving drive.
