BPW Vtec axle
The kink makes the difference!

The secret of the "V"
Small kink, great effect

More stability
Instability is significantly reduced in critical driving situations involving side winds, lane ruts or overtaking. The greater safety margins really come into play if sudden evasive manoeuvres are required.

Improved safety
The Vtec axle specially developed by BPW Fahrzeugtechnik increases the driving and roll stability of your caravan. Toe-in and camber dynamically adapt to the particular driving situation.

Greater driving sensation for everyone
Very good directional stability and smooth driving behaviour. The Vtec axle is available both as a SWING rubber suspension axle and a RONDO torsion bar axle.

1. Dangerous rolling motion ...
When deflected, every axle responds with a spring deflection leading to rolling movements of the caravan.

2. ... are reduced!
The BPW Vtec axle shifts the pivot point upwards, closer to the centre of gravity. This reduces the roll travel and shortens the lever arm. This means rolling motions are significantly reduced.

3. Directional stability is supported.
Better cushioning is provided for oscillating movements caused by lateral forces (side wind, overtaking and avoidance manoeuvres). The wheels set themselves against the lateral forces. This supports tracking stability and improves cornering properties.
