Description

Modern electric cars like the VW ID.3 and Cupra Born built on the MEB-platform have a pretty stiff laser-welded bodyshell.

Up front, the MEB chassis is very rigid between the suspension tops, but at the rear there is much more chassis flex which negatively affects vehicle handling in cornering. It’s bodyshell flex that gives the creaking you occasionally hear.

?The new RacingLine Rear Body Brace solves this issue by locking the crucial hard points together. It uses solid billet aluminium mounts secured into the beautiful, ultra-stiff carbon fibre link bar drastically stiffening the rear of the chassis.

Increased Rigidity
By reinforcing and tying the rear strut towers together, the brace helps to maintain proper suspension geometry under heavy cornering loads. Remove the bodyshell flex, and the suspension geometry can work as it was designed to do.

?Despite the added stiffness, this improved handling performance comes without sacrificing any ride quality or introducing any additional noise, vibration, or harshness into the cabin.

Beautiful driveability
You’ll immediately feel the sharper dynamic responses with the Rear Body Brace fitted. That translates into tighter handling feel as the suspension geometry is at last able to work as it should with less of the ‘squidge’ that comes from chassis flex.

?You’ll even notice the difference at lower speeds. Manoeuvres such as turning into steep-approach angled ramps or driveways also cause the body twisting moments that lead to creaking trim.
