MORryde and AKTV8 are attempted to redefine the towable experience with the introduction of a leveling system controlled by 32-bit micro-processor and air suspension.
iFlex SmartRyde automatically levels and lowers the vehicle by up to 7 inches, greatly improving ingress and egress, while reducing toy hauler ramp angles by 30 percent. The onboard 150-psi air supply provides additional convenience for airing up toys, tools and tires.
“Never before has the towable industry seen this type of intelligence packaged into a single integrated solution,” said Jack Enfield, sales & marketing manager for MORryde.
The air suspension system absorbs and manages poor road conditions, transmitting less vibration to both RV and tow vehicle. Ride height can be adjusted to match the hitch height of the owner’s vehicle, and the suspension automatically maintains ride height, independent of any load, resulting in a smoother, more comfortable towing experience.
The entire system can be controlled via onboard touch panel or smartphone mobile app. Hitching and un-hitching can be performed from inside the tow vehicle.
“Our vision was to transform the camping and towing experience with intelligent pneumatic controls, and eliminate traditional hydraulics” said Josh Coombs, CTO of AKTV8.
“The concept for an air suspension towable was the vision of John Sztykiel, an industry veteran with a history of innovation. The partnership between MORryde and AKTV8 further evolved this concept into a fully integrated air suspension and leveling solution, that capitalizes on MORryde’s reputation for quality and delivery and AKTV8’s innovations in equipment and intelligent controls,” said Gary Meyers, CEO AKTV8. “Collectively, we were driven to bring automotive levels of performance, safety and quality to the product.”
