Before and after comparison
The importance of the front brakes, which carry most of the vehicle's braking pressure, is self-evident, and the P60ES six-piston calipers not only have excellent braking performance and excellent high temperature resistance, but also impressive with their comfortable braking feel and linear response. For owners who pursue driving quality, the P60ES six-piston calipers can effectively suppress the frustration caused by braking, providing a more comfortable and smooth driving experience.
For models with electronic parking, the choice of rear brakes is a major challenge. TEI Racing also offers the perfect solution – the P4-Exploere mechatronic four-piston calipers, which have been specially developed for cars with electronic parking and feature an EPB system that can be easily docked without any changes to the original wiring. Without changing any of the original components, the electronic parking function can be retained, and the braking power of the rear wheels can be greatly increased. By reducing the difference in braking force between the front and rear wheels, the driving dynamics of the vehicle will be further optimized.
After this upgrade, the Trumpchi M8 has not only made a qualitative leap in safety, but also significantly improved the driving comfort.
