A potent braking system reigns in the horses, while the Tension rides on new Type IV Forged wheels in size 10.0" x 20" all around.
Driving dynamics are advanced with an adjustable racing suspension, anti-roll bars, and a specially developed strut brace made of aluminum and carbon.

The TENSION body conversion is absolutely breathtaking, and is completely dedicated to optimizing aerodynamics. Visually, the body of the M6 has been widened by 50mm.

Most incredible is the ability to easily switch-out the rear diffuser and rear wing.
