KW V3 Coilover Suspension

Using the separately and independently adjustable compression and rebound damping, the damper setup can be adapted to individual driving behavior preferences or vehicle changes, such as weight, tire characteristics or changed vehicle rigidity. Only through this unique patented system is real performance optimization possible. For example, the pressure damping force can be increased in order to demand more grip from the tire, improve steering behavior and reduce pitching without simultaneously changing the rebound damping that optimally matches the spring rate, which would have a grip-reducing effect and thus a loss of performance.

Setup – factory preconfigured damping setup with separately adjustable compression and rebound damping

The basic setup of the KW V3 coilover suspension, which is perfectly tailored to the Nordschleife, allows you to individually adapt your sports car to the desired road sports tire setup thanks to the numerous adjustment options. The separately adjustable rebound and compression dampers with their “TVR-A” and “TVC-A” technology allow extensive damper tuning. This makes it easy to directly influence the steering behavior, directional stability, tire grip and handling properties to ensure safe controllability at the limit. Depending on the vehicle type, the KW V3 Clubsport coilovers are delivered with aluminum uniball support bearings.

TVR-A rebound damping:
The two-stage patented “TVR-A” technology allows the low volume flows to flow through an adjustable conical low-speed bypass at slow damper speeds and the main rebound valve to open for the large volume flows at higher piston speeds. This creates a significant increase in driving comfort without affecting the high speed in the safety-relevant area. There are 16 precise clicks available for individual adjustment, so you can choose between more comfort or more assembly control.

TVC-A compression damping:
With 12 precise clicks, the adjustable compression valve (“TVC-A” technology) can reduce or enlarge the cross-section in the low-speed valve to achieve more or less compression damping. At the same time, the spring-loaded needle valve opens its maximum valve cross-section together with the spring-loaded main valve at sudden high piston speeds in order to prevent unwanted progressive increases in force in the high-speed range with its blow-off characteristic. This makes it possible to better support the vehicle body and at the same time offer more comfort at high wheel accelerations than with conventional valve technology. The compression damping adjustment is always delivered in conjunction with a separate rebound adjustment, as only an independent 2-way damper adjustment allows real performance optimization.

Continuous lowering

The KW V3 coilover suspension enables maximum lowering within the tested adjustment range. Thanks to the dirt-resistant trapezoidal thread and the polyamide threaded ring, the stepless lowering can be varied quickly and easily even after years.

The benchmark for coilovers

As with all KW coilovers, KW's engineers develop the vehicle-specific KW damper set-up, which is valued by car enthusiasts worldwide, in extensive test cycles on the Nürburgring Nordschleife and in the test center on the KW 7-post driving dynamics test bench. With a KW coilover suspension you can experience your car more directly and dynamically.

After all, you are not buying just any coilover kit, but a KW coilover kit that has been specially developed and tuned for your vehicle type. As a manufacturer, KW only uses its own resources, high-quality components and the same damper technology as large-scale manufacturers. With the KW V1, the rolling and pitching movements of the vehicle body are reduced during compression, meaning you benefit from genuine directness and sportier handling when driving.

Experience for your driving pleasure

For over 20 years, KW has been a manufacturer of individual chassis solutions for the road and the market leader and driver of innovation in racing. No matter where in the world, sporty drivers, automobile manufacturers and refiners rely on our KW coilovers “Made in Germany”.

Every KW coilover suspension is subjected to extensive stress tests during production and is developed and manufactured directly at the company headquarters in Fichtenberg, Swabia, in order to meet the high standards of KW quality management.
As a German manufacturer, it is a matter of course for KW to guarantee a multi-year guarantee on its KW coilover suspensions, which exceed the original manufacturer's quality and suspension solutions covering over 4,600 applications.
