What is the general ground clearance of a sedan?
1 Answers
The minimum ground clearance of a sedan typically ranges between 100mm and 150mm. Here are some details about ground clearance: 1. For ordinary family sedans: As long as there are no steep slopes, deep potholes, or obstacles on the road, a large ground clearance is generally not required. It should ensure the comfort and stability of the vehicle. 2. For sports cars: The ground clearance is usually around 100mm. The low ground clearance in sports cars is designed to improve tire grip, enhance speed, and ensure stability during high-speed cornering. High-speed cornering stability refers to avoiding skidding or rollover. 3. Larger ground clearance: Better off-road capability and easier parking. A higher ground clearance not only improves performance on gravel or mountainous roads but also prevents water from entering the exhaust pipe when driving through flooded areas. It also makes parking on curbs or uneven parking spots more convenient. Smaller ground clearance results in a lower center of gravity but poor off-road capability, making it difficult to drive on gravel or dirt roads.
