KW Hydraulic Lift-System

Make life easy when negotiating obstacles for sporty cars with low ground clearance.

More ground clearance by the push of a button

With the HLS lift system you can lift your sports car or lowered vehicle to safely negotiate obstacles such as speedbumps, railroad crossings, road works, garages and underground car parks. Depending on the version of the HLS lift system your vehicle can be hydraulically lifted either at the front axle or on both axles by up to 45 mm.

KW Hydraulic Lift System

This prevents damage to your aerodynamic components, underbody protection or even oil sump. The lift system is available either as a vehicle-specific solution with or without a KW coilover kit, depending on the type of car and the model. If you cannot find your vehicle in our KW HLS product range, our engineers have also developed a universal lift system.

A great solution made by KW

For a wide range of super cars and general everyday cars our HLS is available as an application-specific solution. Included in the delivery are such parts as the hydraulic lines or hydraulic pump adapted to your vehicle, all components will fit perfectly to your sports car. No matter if you want to combine the HLS with your series suspension kit or our KW coilovers which are one of the worlds top aftermarket products, the choice is yours. Alpina, BMW M, Manthey, Mercedes-Benz AMG, Novitec Rosso and many other well-known companies of the international automotive industry place their trust in KW coilover kits.

The lift kit "HLS 2" is only installed on the front axle. "HLS 4" allows you to lift the entire vehicle. A hydraulic cylinder is installed between spring plate and springs of each KW strut. The great advantage of the hydraulic system is that driving dynamics are not affected. The delivery content for all HLS lift kit versions include a control unit, which is connected to the vehicles on-board electronics. The vehicle will be automatically lowered at a certain speed to the original level of the KW coilover kit or your series suspension.

About KW HLS (Hydraulic Lift System)

KW HLS (Hydraulic Lift System)

KW’s Hydraulic Lift System (HLS) gives Porsche owners with lowered or performance-focused suspension a practical way to deal with everyday obstacles such as speed bumps, steep driveways and ramps. Available for a wide range of Porsche models and KW suspension applications, it allows you to retain a sporty ride height while temporarily adding ground clearance at the touch of a button.

Why do KW HLS (Hydraulic Lift System) upgrades matter?

Lowering a Porsche improves stance and can enhance the driving experience, but it also reduces usable clearance at the front spoiler, undertray and exhaust. The KW HLS system is designed specifically to address this problem: it lets you briefly raise the car when needed, then return to your preferred driving height once clear of the obstacle. For many owners this is the difference between being able to use a lowered Porsche every day and constantly worrying about scraping expensive bodywork or underbody components.

  • Helps protect front bumpers, splitters and undertrays from contact with ramps and speed humps
  • Makes everyday use of a lowered Porsche more practical without changing the core suspension setup
  • Can be integrated with suitable KW coilover kits or, in some applications, used with original suspension
  • Supports long-term enjoyment of the car by reducing nuisance contact and cosmetic damage

Common options & kits

Individual front-axle lift solutions

Front-axle-only HLS kits are aimed at Porsches where the main issue is nose clearance for speed bumps, ramps and driveway entrances.

  • Raises the front axle by approximately 30–45 mm (application-dependent)
  • Ideal when front splitters or bumpers are at risk of scraping
  • Helps retain the chosen ride height and geometry for normal driving

HLS modules matched to KW coilover kits

Many KW HLS solutions are designed to work in combination with KW coilover suspension (such as selected Variant or Clubsport kits), integrating neatly into the existing spring/damper assembly.

  • Developed to work with specific KW coilover applications for Porsche models
  • Hydraulic components sized and packaged to suit the intended kit
  • Provides a coherent upgrade path for performance-oriented setups that still need road usability

Brands available in this category

For this category we stock a wide choice of trusted brands for Porsche models. You can also browse and filter by brand on this page to focus on your preferred manufacturers.

When should you review or consider a KW HLS (Hydraulic Lift System)?

The KW Hydraulic Lift System is not primarily about fixing a fault; it is about adding useful functionality to an already well-set-up Porsche. It becomes particularly relevant once you start to run a lower ride height, add aero components or encounter access issues in day-to-day use.

  • Your Porsche is lowered and regularly scrapes, or comes close to scraping, on speed bumps, ramps or driveways
  • You have fitted or plan to fit deeper front spoilers, splitters or underbody aero that reduce clearance
  • Access to home, work or car parks involves steep approach angles or tight ramps
  • You want to maintain a performance-oriented stance and geometry without compromising on basic practicality

If any of these apply, it is a good time to look at KW HLS options so your Porsche remains usable on typical roads and entrances while still sitting and driving the way you want when fully lowered.
