Lamborghini Develops Active Toe & Camber System to Improve Handling

Lamborghini is developing a new Active Wheel Hub toe and camber system that helps to improve its vehicle’s dynamics.

Renowned Italian marque Lamborghini is currently developing a new technology that aims to improve the driving dynamics of its future models. Known as the Lamborghini Active Wheel Hub, this active toe and camber system allows drivers to adjust the wheel’s toe and camber setting on the fly, which also happens to be an industry-first system.

This new system allows both the wheels’ camber to be adjusted at up to 2.5 degrees of positive or 5.5 degrees of negative camber, while the toe can be adjusted at up to 6.6 degrees in or out. This whole adjustment operation is carried out by a large hub assembly that houses the rotating flanges that control the whole camber and toe adjustments, powered by a pair of 48-volt electric motors placed on the rear axle.

Currently fitted on a Huracan prototype, this new system has shown some positive improvements, with initial testing results showing up to 25% improvements in cornering force. Additionally, Lamborghini also claimed that the prototype is now capable of lapping the Imola track 2.5 seconds faster and about five seconds faster around the Nurburgring Nordschleife track compared to the standard Huracan model.

While initial testing has shown some decent results, Lamborghini explained that the technology is still in the development stage, with the Italian automaker expecting this new system to be implemented in its future models about a year from now. However, there was no mention of which model will be the first to get this new active toe and camber system, though the system’s reliance on 48-volt motors could indicate that the model may feature some partial or even full electrification in its powertrain setup.

Furthermore, Lamborghini’s chief technical officer, Rouven Mohr, told Car and Driver that the biggest hurdle in developing this new system was on the software rather than the hardware. The automaker is still figuring out how to get the hub to work in-tandem with other software systems available in the car, including stability control and active aerodynamics.

With the whole system set to go live at least a year from now, this should give more time for Lamborghini technicians and engineers to fine-tune and resolve this matter. Should this Active Wheel Hub system come into fruition, it will be the first system of its kind, as adjusting both the toe and camber of a wheel is a strenuous process that can’t be done on the fly.
