The amount of the clearance may indicate several important characteristics of the car, including its purpose. If the car is small, the car is designed for the asphalt traffic and can develop high speed. If the ground clearance is more than 20 centimeters, consider whether to buy a car for driving at extremely high speed. Some modern vehicles can be adjusted during traffic.

The least protected design element in the vehicle is most often the front bumper. He is most often in contact with winter snow drifts and city turkeys. It is therefore appropriate to know exactly this parameter of your car. For passenger cars, the figure is between 140 and 200 mm and between 200 and 350 mm. At present, many passenger cars around the perimeter of the bumper can see the so-called "skirt" of plastic.
The most vivid examples of small and large climes are Ferrari F40 with 124 mm and Hummer H1 with 410 mm in the base
This security element is a unique audible warning device that alerts the driver while riding an obstacle. Don't worry too much about the sharp scraper of plastic, because "skirt" was invented to keep the bumper from damage. Even if plastic protection is not suitable, its replacement will not be a special effort, and the price of that part is not burdensome. However, some car owners immediately after the purchase dispose of this part of the bumper, thus increasing the front edge by 20-30 mm.
The next important point where the distance from the ground is to be measured is the pallet of the engine crankcase. This element is typically the bottom of the subsurface of a machine. For passenger cars, the distance from the crankcase pallet to asphalt is 120 to 170 mm, and for off-road vehicles it is 200 mm and higher. To avoid deformation of the pan, it is necessary to protect the engine. Naturally, the protection will reduce the climate by several centimeters, but the degree of protection of the aggregates will increase significantly.

The vehicle components of the exhaust system as well as the fuel tank and rear suspension levers are low below the bottom of the vehicle.
Ways of increasing clearance and its consequences
You can increase the drives by changing the diameter of the disks. A more radical solution is to replace the springs and shocks to elongated. In any tuning area, you can find the required elements of the suspension on any model, but you can't recommend it. The point is that when you increase the clearance, you need to rearrange the entire suspension, which is sometimes not provided for in a constructive approach. In addition, the increase in clearance results in a partial loss of stability, especially when passing the steep turns. The most expensive but also the most efficient and safe method is the installation of the pneumosuspension. Adjustable suspension allows you to reduce your clearance when you need to develop high speed and increase it by driving down a bad road.
Since 2014, HYDRA workers have taken control of the struggle with the self-moderation of the clenence. Now the traffic police will carry the instruments for measuring the ground clearance. If there is a discrepancy with the normal parameters, a fine will be issued for an article on the introduction of uncompleted changes in the design of the car.
