SMART FORFOUR
In the new Smart Forfour, the latest
generation of hinges from Edscha is
opening series-produced doors for
the first time (page 22 f.):The Notch
Stop is a door hinge with an inte-
grated door check and some very
special advantages for the OEM as
well as for car users. It takes up less
room than two separate systems and
is – thanks to its closed-off compart-
ment – proof against paint penetra-
tion, easy to fit and maintenance-
free. Its modular design makes for a
special feature: the integrated door
check technology is interchange-
able – for example with the Soft-
Stop

, a stepless system also de-
veloped by Edscha.
Edscha furthermore supplies engine
hood and liftgate hinges, plus foot
controls and handbrake for the new
Smart Forfour.

VIANO
The Viano’s foot-operated
parking brake, specially de-
signed by Edscha, is distin-
guished by an extremely com-
pact sandwich construction and
a strict design-to-cost appro-
ach. Even a manufacturer of
exclusive Italian sports cars has
since evinced interest in this
product from Edscha’s plant in
Santander, Spain.
