A vehicle having a support structure includes a front structural section for receiving a front axle assembly and a rear structural section opposite the front structural section in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. A support part is arranged between the front structural section and the rear structural section as part of the support structure. The support part has a support wall which runs in a self-contained manner in the circumferential direction transversely with respect to the longitudinal direction of the vehicle.

Vehicle having a support structure

A system for predictive chassis control including a wheel-spring device controllable with respect to a damping or suspension characteristic, a sensor for ascertaining a force profile of a disturbance acting on the wheel-spring device, and a navigation for ascertaining a current geoposition of the off-road utility vehicle in the form of an associated position data. The system includes a memory unit and a control unit for saving the force profile induced by the disturbance or a quantity derived therefrom. The control unit detects an imminent renewed crossing of the disturbance by continuous reconciliation of the current geoposition received from the navigation with the saved position data. The control unit adapts the damping or suspension characteristic on the basis of the saved force profile or the quantity derived therefrom by a pilot control of the wheel-spring device to compensate for an influence of the disturbance on the wheel-spring device.

A cooling system is provided for a vehicle having an engine. The cooling system includes an engine cooling radiator positioned in front of the engine, a radiator fan for moving air through the radiator, a duct fro conducting air blown through the radiator, and a pair of subsystem heat exchangers, each with an electric motor driven fan. The duct has a forward opening inlet receiving warmed air from the radiator, a housing extending substantially upwardly from the inlet to an upwardly opening outlet. The heat exchangers are positioned higher than the radiator, and adjacent to and in front of the outlet of the duct. The radiator fan may be mounted in front of the radiator, or it may be mounted inside the duct outlet. An air cleaner unit may be positioned higher than and forward of the radiator and lower than the heat exchangers.
