More sales for workshops: the new BILSTEIN trailing load calculator as a service tool
Essen, 27.05.2025 – With the new BILSTEIN trailing load calculator, the suspension specialist is offering workshops an innovative service tool with great potential for additional business. This easy-to-use online tool requires just a few inputs to calculate the additional trailer load on the rear axle – for example, due to a bicycle rack with e-bikes.
Many drivers underestimate the impact of additional loads on the driving behaviour of their vehicle. The BILSTEIN trailing load calculator provides transparency: workshops can show their customers the effect of two e-bikes on a rear carrier, for example, with an additional load of 120 kg on the rear axle – and how BILSTEIN B6 high-performance shock absorbers ensure greater safety and stability.
- Optimised driving stability – increased safety when driving round corners and braking
- Reduced vehicle roll – better control even with high loads and drawbar loads
- Direct vehicle response – more precise handling for a superior driving experience
- Easy retrofitting – no need to replace springs or get additional expert opinions
For workshops, the tool not only offers a convincing customer benefit, but also the chance of lucrative additional business. After all, the BILSTEIN B6 is available exclusively on the independent aftermarket – a clear competitive advantage over conventional series components.
