Description
Meet the new Road & Track suspension for Tesla Model 3 and Model Y. Backed by over 45 years of experience in advanced suspension development and racing, the Road & Track line showcases Öhlins’ ability to engineer the ultimate suspension system for driving enthusiasts.
The Road & Track suspension for Tesla Model 3 is specially tuned for battery electric vehicle (BEV) applications, with Öhlins’ patented Dual Flow Valve (DFV) technology to transform chassis control while sustaining a refined ride quality unsurpassed in the OE or aftermarket. Ride height and damping control are adjustable to help you achieve the right look and feedback. Dampers can be individually adjusted through a wide range of adjustment options, with more than 20 defined clicks. Systems feature a monotube damper structure for heightened response, with strengthened inverted struts and lightweight aluminum body shocks that aid in cooling.
With the Öhlins Road & Track suspension, you can expect superior ride quality, comfort, and safety over a variety of conditions and uses. The combination of premium features and options to fine-tune your performance result in the ultimate suspension package for daily drivers and weekend warriors alike.

Technical Details
The precise control of the Öhlins DFV dampers are both due to the patented Dual Flow Valve pistons, as well as the high attention to detail and component tolerances, typically found on much higher-end shocks. The end result is a damper that has the ability to optimally track the movement of the road surface, increasing tire contact patch and therefore total available grip. Öhlins patented Dual Flow Valve piston contains center and side exit oil flow paths, which allows for separate control of low-speed, high-speed, and ultra-high-speed damping. The DFV has the unique ability to remain firm when it needs to (for body control movement), reduce damping force (for bump control), and significantly bleed-off damping force under high linear accelerations (to absorb abrupt and sharp impacts) instead of transferring them to the chassis. This makes the Ohlins DFV unsurpassed on both the track and street, as berms, mid-corner bumps, and other surface irregularities can be soaked up on track, as opposed to upsetting the chassis.
The same ultra-high-speed damping force is helpful on the street, as a firm-but-supple ride can be maintained for optimal body-control handling, while potholes and large impacts are readily absorbed during day to day driving.
An additional feature of the DFV is its internal temperature correction needle-valve, which meters the flow of shock oil to compensate for changing oil viscosity, based on shock temperature. This needle valve closes for cold temperatures where the shock oil is thicker, and opens to compensate for thinner oil viscosity when the shock becomes hot - resulting in absolutely consistent performance in all circumstances despite the internal temperature of the damper!
