Modification Case丨Ideal L9 Upgrade S60 PLUS P4 EXPLORE Front Six Rear Four Brake Set

Mondo Digital Updated on 2024-01-28

When it comes to Li Auto, the key words in my mind are undoubtedly "smart and luxury", as a domestic luxury intelligent electric brand, Li Auto is at the top level in the industry in terms of design, R&D, manufacturing and service.

Compared with the first model, the Ideal One, the Ideal L9 is more appropriate in terms of design, and since its launch in 2022, it has become the new flagship SUV model of the Ideal brand, winning the reputation of consumers with its extremely comfortable driving experience and top-notch intelligent configuration, and has won the monthly large SUV sales champion for many times.

In terms of power configuration, the ideal L9 is equipped with a flagship-level extended range front and rear dual-motor intelligent four-wheel drive system, which can provide a maximum of 330kW power and 620N·m torque, and the acceleration from 0 to 100km h only takes 5In 3 seconds, the power output is very abundant. However, as a luxury SUV built for the family scene, strong power is far from enough, and braking safety performance is the top priority.

Before and after comparison

Product installation display

Some owners of the front wheels chose the S60-PLUS large six-piston caliper, and the progressive six-piston layout optimizes the foot feel while providing strong braking power, making the brake foot feel more linear and delicate; Secondly, the piston adopts a ventilated structure design, even in the face of the strong power output of the ideal L9, it can also have more excellent heat dissipation performance after full braking, and reduce the performance degradation caused by brake thermal attenuation.

In terms of vehicle weight, the ideal L9 has a vehicle weight of more than two and a half tons, and the high center of gravity of the vehicle weight + SUV may cause the brake nodding, and the synchronous upgrade of the rear wheel brake can greatly alleviate this problem. In terms of rear wheels, the P4-Explore electromechanical four-piston caliper is selected to reduce the gap between the front and rear braking performance, so that the four-wheel braking force is distributed more evenly, so as to achieve a more stable driving dynamics. What's more, the P4-Explore mechatronic four-piston calipers feature an EPB system that retains the electronic parking function without breaking the line and docking the original vehicle, making it the best of both worlds.

After the completion of the upgrade, the ideal L9 has been greatly improved in the braking data test, and the best braking score of the original caliper per 100 kilometers is 378m, the best measured result after upgrading the TEI Racing brake kit is 32m, let's take a look at the effect together!

TEI Racing focuses on brake upgrades, provides you with more stable and professional braking solutions, and is a safety performance steward around you!
