Motorsport and vehicle technology specialist, Prodrive, is developing a vehicle dynamics system that actively adjusts toe angle to improve vehicle handling.
Known as Active Toe Control, it works on the rear axle of front wheel drive cars to optimise the toe angle, depending on the speed of the vehicle. This helps overcome the static toe compromise of either giving a vehicle agile handling at lower speeds or making it more stable and predictable at high speed.
