The body spring is the balancing element between the body, which should remain as still as possible, and the wheels, which should follow the road surface. The spring absorbs force peaks without introducing them directly into the car body. Dampers release the energy stored in the spring in a controlled manner and also act as dynamic springs. In this way, both also contribute to lightweight construction because load-bearing parts do not have to be designed for the load peaks caused by bumps. Only a well-tuned spring-damper system enables (long-lasting) fast driving.
