What the Quaife ATB® Limited Slip Differential Does
Once installed, the Quaife ATB® Limited Slip Differential delivers immediate performance enhancements by automatically distributing torque to the wheel with the most grip. This significantly reduces wheelspin and slippage, resulting in less understeer in front- or all-wheel-drive vehicles, and minimizes oversteer in rear-wheel-drive cars. With the Quaife ATB®, rear-wheel-drive vehicles become more controllable during oversteer, enabling drivers to unlock their car’s full potential for a more exhilarating and faster driving experience.
In front-wheel-drive vehicles, the Quaife ATB® differential provides added performance benefits during heavy braking. It reduces torque on the locking wheel, enhancing braking efficiency, delaying ABS system activation, and allowing drivers to brake later and deeper than with a standard 'open' differential.
Independent testing by Redline Magazine on a RenaultSport Clio 200 revealed a reduction of over 2 seconds in lap times on a short circuit, proving the significant performance gains of the Quaife ATB® and its excellent value for money.
Trusted By OEMs
The Quaife ATB® Differential is trusted by some of the world’s most iconic automotive manufacturers in their high-performance models. Ford, General Motors (GM), BMW, Lotus, and Chrysler are among the top brands that have chosen this renowned ‘traction enhancer.’ Featured in models like all three generations of the Ford Focus RS, the Lotus Evora 400, Mini JCW Challenge, Chevrolet Cobalt SS, and Ford’s 2018 Fiesta ST, the Quaife ATB® proves its superior performance across a variety of vehicles.
