- Definition(s)
- Ground clearance is the measurement from the lowest-hanging point under a vehicle (usually a differential, part of the suspension or the exhaust system) towards the ground. A high ground clearance allows a vehicle to drive more easily off-road or through heavy snow without damaging the underbody. autoevolution
- Example sentence(s)

Mēģinot sasniegt maksimālo ātrumu, klīrenss samazinās līdz attiecīgi 6,5 cm un 7 cm. - iauto.lv by Kaspars Gasuns
