Racingline Lowering Springs – Volkswagen ID.3

30mm Lowering Range

What
they do.

Your ID.3 or Cupra Born will be transformed with our carefully developed RacingLine Sport Springs.

They replace the car’s four standard springs with re-engineered, progressive Sport Springs, bringing tighter dynamics yet retaining all of the factory car’s comfort.

Meanwhile, the car’s appearance is transformed. By getting rid of those nasty wheelarch gaps, it’ll look like it always should’ve from the factory.

What’s not to like? No wonder our Sport Springs are our best-selling product worldwide.

Perfect
drop & looks

If there’s one criticism of the ID.3’s 21st century looks, it’s surely the high ride height and resulting stance on the road.

Our springs lower the ID3 / Born by around 30mm, a reduction carefully determined in order to preserve the wheel travel needed to keep the perfect ride & handling.

Go lower or stiffer than our springs and your car will bounce and crash along the road as the dampers are mismatched to spring-rate.

This perfectly judged drop gives the car a stance that looks just perfect – in fact, just like it always should have looked from the factory.

Perfect
comfort

Right from the start of our development, we knew we had to preserve the MEB’s sophisticated ride quality that we fell in love with immediately.

And we’re thrilled with the result.

As the factory springs on the ID.3 are so long, we’ve pretty-much achieved the impossible with our variable-rate springs that doesn’t have any adverse affect on comfort. No crashing, no bottoming-out, no risk to the life of the standard dampers.

Improved
efficiency

With the car sitting lower, there’s less air going underneath. It’s well documented that underbody drag is one of the biggest factors making up the car’s total aero drag, even with the relatively smooth underside that the MEB-platform uses.

Therefore anything that can reduce the amount of air travelling under the car has a direct effect on drag imposed on the vehicle, creating a better outcome for efficiency and range.

Perfect
development

Many experts consider suspension development to be as much an art as a science. In truth, it’s a bit of both.

Our progressive-rate spring construction means the spring rate in the middle of its travel is actually very similar to standard.

It’s only towards the end of the spring’s travel (so, when compressed under braking or cornering) that we have engineered the spring to stiffen.

It’s this progressive-rate spring design that’s the secret to achieving such a good ride quality.

Perfect
handling

By lowering the ID3 / Born by around 30mm, we’ve meticulously worked to preserve the wheel travel needed to keep the perfect ride & handling.

The vehicle’s centre of gravity is lowered, reducing body roll for better dynamics, whilst maintaining the ride quality and comfort of your car.
