Hello,

So i know that these brands has,

Porsche: Active Ride (hybrid, Panamera),

Mercedes-Benz: E-Active Body Control (non-hybrid, S-Class,GT or GLE),

Audi: Predictive Active Suspension (non-hybrid, A8)

Ferrari: Active Suspension Technology (Purosangue and F80 only?)

Which other brands does have this currently (excluding McLaren,BYD and NIO)?

Which of these are comfiest,what are their speciality to its own?

(we did feel the 2023 panamera harcher than 2020 bmw 745LE, hybrid S580E feels better than both, non of them had fully active system, is it better to switch back to panamera but with active suspension or stick with nonactive S580E?)

Are these comparable to a Bentley or maybe RR level suspension?

Thank you!
 
BMW 7 Series:

The standard "adaptive 2-axle air suspension" (SA 2VR) including automatic self-levelling suspension ensures extremely comfortable driving and suspension dynamics in your BMW 7 Series (2022), while at the same time providing the vehicle with great agility and stability. The air suspension keeps the chassis at the right height, regardless of the load. Together with the electronically controlled shock absorbers of the adaptive suspension, it always finds the right compromise between comfort and dynamics, taking your driving situation into account. With the My Modes, you can configure the suspension settings according to your wishes. In "SPORT" mode, the vehicle is lowered by 10 millimetres from the normal position to lower the centre of gravity and increase driving dynamics. Thanks to the firmer suspension, the lateral inclination in bends is reduced. In other My Modes, the chassis is also lowered at speeds over 140 km/h - for optimised aerodynamics, less fuel consumption and an increased range. For obstacles such as ramps, you can raise the ground clearance by 20 millimetres at the touch of a button below 35 km/h. The level changes are shown on the instrument display and with the LED flashing on the self-levelling suspension button.

So i want to clarify, i did ride with the BMW 745E 2019(still better than Panamera 4 ehybrid 2023), BMW 745LE 202X xdrive just sit inside and configured, BMW 750E xdrive sit and configure. But again your are telling me about adaptive suspension and not fully active.
 
But again your are telling me about adaptive suspension and not fully active.
Active body roll stabilisation, which is part of the option “Executive Drive Pro”, now operates with a 48 volt electric motor. Its new “active roll comfort” function not only compensates for rolling movements due to uneven road surfaces, but also actively adjusts the body height on the side of the vehicle concerned.

We've been down this road before. There's active and then there's active.
