Want additional comfort and performance on your new Airstream Interstate? With an Air Ride Suspension, your next trip will be like riding on a cushion of air. This optional feature replaces the stock rear suspension components with adjustable air springs and shock absorbers that automatically smooth the ride and enhance the Interstate’s already car-like handling.
The fully automatic electronically-controlled air suspension system ensures that the vehicle maintains a level ride height in any load situation. As each air spring moves up or down, the system rapidly adjusts to road conditions by adding or removing air to sharpen handling and maintain comfort. When driving, the specially-designed air suspension system improves ride quality, maneuvering, and tire wear.
The system consists of several components including the air springs, shock absorbers, sway bar, and air suspension control unit. These work together as an integrated system to improve overall comfort by buffering the impact of bumps and vibrations of uneven roads for a smoother ride for passengers and cargo. The air suspension maintains a proper ride height to improve aerodynamics and fuel economy, while also enhancing vehicle stability by reducing cornering sway and crosswind sensitivity. And no matter the number of passengers, the cargo weight, or if you’re towing a trailer using hitch-based cargo storage, your travels will always be level and smooth with automatic load leveling.
When stopped, the rear vehicle height can also be adjusted to simplify vehicle loading or trailer hitching. The air suspension also provides the ability to level the vehicle when parked on uneven ground or for camping.
With over ten thousand installations in Europe, the VB Air Suspension system is Mercedes-Benz approved, and seamlessly integrates into the Interstate through an electronic control unit.
