Chassis
Another key advantage of PCCB is the
extremely low weight of the ceramic
brake discs, which are approximately
50 % lighter than standard discs of similar
design and size. As well as enhancing
performance and fuel economy, this represents a major reduction in unsprung
and rotating masses. The consequence

of this is bet ter road holding and increased
comfort, particularly on uneven roads,
as well as greater agilit y and improved
handling. Please note that circuit racing, trackday
use and other forms of performance

driving can significantly reduce the
service life of even the most durable
pads and discs. As with conventional
high-performance braking systems, we recommend that all brake compo
-
nents be professionally inspected and
replaced where necessary after every
track event.
Electric parking brake.
The electric parking brake, which can
be activated and deactivated manually,
is released automatically as you pull
away with your seat belt fastened. A hill
hold function is integrated as standard for the manual gearbox and for PDK.
It assists you in making a comfortable,
smooth and roll-free start on an incline.
Whenever you come to halt on an incline,
this is detected automatically and the
braking effect of the electric parking brake is supplemented by application

of the wheel brakes. As long as a gear
remains engaged, the brake pressure
is maintained at all four wheels. To pull
away, simply apply throttle (manual gearbox: apply throt tle and release the
clutch pedal). The wheel brakes are
released as soon as sufficient starting
torque is available and the parking brake
is released as the vehicle moves off.
