I passed over the off road pack because did not like the look and the cost...however would like the ability to raise suspension (which is part of the pack). Anyone know if you can get that off road suspension lift as a stand alone option? I know its not in the configurator as such but surely this is just a software switch and not new hardware that allows the extra lift? I figure if they can do it through the pack they may be able to give it to you otherwise. Anyone know?

Lift/off road is Standard with air suspension!

It's required to meet "SUV" criteria in NA.

The offroad pack is a minor increase due only to bodywork and you can spec the offroad front fascia separately for +10mm bank angle.

so I did find the front fascia separated from the entire package however it omits the +10mm part although it does say you get additional clearance.

Yes, it's +10mm simply because the front fascia is 10mm higher. No mechanical or software changes, just the front fascia (the lowest part of the car) is 10mm higher from the ground.

If you look at Air Suspension info it shows offroad mode is present. The offroad package is purely physical changes, nothing mechanical or software. The front fascia is the only ground clearance change, the rest of the package is just aesthetic and replacing with slightly/supposedly more durable materials.

Front fascia on ours, no offroad pack as black roof rails delete offroad and add sub front fascia.
