KONI has had a long and varied history in the transportation industry. During the mid-19th century, KONI manufactured horse harnesses and carriage upholstery, and by the early 20th century was making leaf spring covers and automotive metalwork. In 1932, KONI started manufacturing dampers, and has been improving the ride and handling characteristics of vehicles ever since. In fact, KONI is now recognized as one of the leading providers of high-performance suspension components in the world, and has earned that reputation through numerous victories in various forms of motorsports, including F1. Each adjustable KONI damper is designed to get the most out of your vehicle's suspension with regards to handling, comfort, and safety, bringing new life to your ride and, no doubt, a smile to your face.
