The E61 Touring with xDrive is a car for drivers who refused to compromise. It carries gear, covers ground fast, and goes places sedans cannot. Anyone who specced the xDrive already knew what they were doing. The KW V3 gives this platform the suspension setup that matches how you actually use the car.
Independent compression and rebound dials let you tune the E61 based on load and conditions. Soften compression when the car is loaded for a long trip and dial in rebound when you want it to respond like the sport wagon it is. The xDrive-specific application fits exactly as designed with no modifications and no compromises on fitment.
