Fichtenberg (Germany), August 22, 2024 – For the two small cars the Seat Ibiza Mk V and VW Polo Mk VI, ap Sportfahrwerke is now introducing an ap coilover suspension kit. Both small cars are based on the Volkswagen Group’s joint MQB-A0 platform. The parts certificate covers a stepless lowering of 35 to 65 millimeters for the Seat Ibiza Mk V (type KJ1). In the VW Polo Mk VI (type AW, AW1, BZ1), the adjustable lowering range is between 30 and 60 millimeters, applicable to the front and rear axles. The ap coilover suspensions give both small cars more direct handling. Even the high-performance Seat Ibiza Mk V 1.5 TSI FR and VW Polo VI 2.0 TSI GTI become even more enjoyable for drivers who love curvy roads after installing the ap coilover suspension kit. The ap coilovers developed and manufactured by KW automotive, offer a convincing rolling comfort even with the maximum lowering set. Including the parts certificate, the two ap coilovers are offered for 639.95 euros each. For more information, visit www.ap-sportsuspensions.com
New development offensive at ap Sportfahrwerke. After the expansion of ap coilovers for compact sport utility vehicles, the brand of the suspension manufacturer KW automotive is increasingly concentrating on small cars, compact models and vehicles from the mid-range. For example, the ap coilover suspension kit for all Seat Ibiza Mk V (type KJ1) and all VW Polo Mk VI (type AW, AW1, BZ1) has recently been released. The ap coilovers have a predefined damper setup that gives both small cars a sporty drive. Whether in the 150 hp Seat Ibiza 1.5 TSI FR or the up to 200 hp top-engined VW Polo Mk VI 2.0 TSI GTI, the ap coilover suspension ensures driving pleasure.
The entire design of the progressive spring and non-adjustable dampers is meticulously developed to balance sportiness with rolling comfort. Even on slight bumps and undulating asphalt surfaces, the ap coilover suspension, manufactured in Germany by KW automotive, absorbs these shocks cleanly. Compared to pure sports suspensions or lowering springs, this ensures balanced rolling comfort. The Seat Ibiza and the VW Polo always drive directly and directionally with the ap coilover suspension. With the ap coilover suspension kit both small cars benefit from significantly higher corner speeds, making them even more enjoyable on winding roads. Compared to the standard suspensions, both small cars turn sharper. The lateral inclination of the body is also significantly reduced. All this even works when the Seat Ibiza and the VW Polo have been lowered to the maximum.
The parts certificate covers an adjustable lowering range of 35 to 65 millimeters for all Seat Ibiza Mk V (type KJ1). Except for the VW Polo Mk VI 2.0 TSI GTI, the other Polo models can be lowered by between 30 and 60 millimeters. The GTI is already ten millimeters lower ex works with its sports suspension, which means that a lowering of 30 to 50 millimeters is possible. The lowering is adjusted via an aluminum spring plate directly on the steel-galvanized front axle struts and on the ap rear axle height adjustment. Both ap coilovers are offered at the recommended retail price of 639.95 euros in specialist dealers and directly from ap Sportfahrwerke.
If they are installed professionally as in the enclosed parts certificate and installation instructions by automotive workshops, the suspension manufacturer KW automotive grants a two-year warranty on the coilovers from ap Sportfahrwerke. For more information, visit www.ap-sportsuspensions.com
