That active feeling

Last year Koni launched its new innovative aftermarket shock absorber called Special-ACTIVE featuring adaptive damping - a concept first appearing in Grand Prix racing more than 35-years-ago before filtering through to a select band of upmarket cars. The difference with this new Koni damper is it’s devoid of the usual electronics which control the system - relying on unique internal valving instead. It has become a straight retro-fit for a wide range of models - offering an interesting alternative if your motor requires new dampers.
