Underbody
The almost fully closed vehicle underbody plays an important role in the
aerodynamics. The acoustics
in the vehicle are also significantly improved as a result. In the front
section, the air flow is directed
past the front wheels by the displacers (7). In this way, the airflow on the
front wheel is reduced. In the
rear area, the 2 wind deflectors (3) on the axle and the cover of the rear axle
differential (5) contribute
to optimized underbody flow together with the rear diffuser (4), which is
adapted for each drivetrain
design.

Functional requirements
Ensure full functionality:
Do not cover sensors, for instance with stickers,
bicycle racks.
Keep the sensors clean and unobstructed.
Switching on
The camera systems provide support for parking, maneuvering and for complex
exits and
intersections.
The range of camera systems offered has changed completely with the G30. With
the exception of the
rear view camera, the systems are no longer available as individual items of
optional equipment.
