A new Hyundai patent describes a split sway bar that absorbs bumps on one side instead of transferring them straight across the carA newly filed patent depicts a new sway bar using two connected halves. The advanced new sway bar could boost ride comfort without impacting handling. A patent recently filed by Hyundai reveals the company could be looking to re-invent the traditional sway bar. As resistance increases, the two outer sections will begin to twist, ultimately also allowing it to function like a solid sway bar. A new, semi-active sway bar like the one described in this patent shouldn’t add too much cost over a normal sway bar, but does promise significant benefits.
