    2. Rear Coil Spring

      1. Both ends of the rear coil spring have been formed into a small-diameter, pigtail shape. The compact construction has been designed to accommodate the low floor package.

      2. An insulator has been provided at both the upper and lower ends and the rubber thickness has been optimized to achieve a high level of vibration isolation performance and ride comfort.

    3. Rear Shock Absorber Assembly

      1. A low-pressure (N2) gas sealed rear shock absorber assembly with a multi-leaf type linear control valve is used to achieve both driving stability and riding comfort.

      2. A rebound spring is used to improve roll angle and roll posture.

        Tech Tips

        To prevent hazardous conditions, make sure to empty the gas from the rear shock absorber assembly before discarding the low-pressure (N2) gas sealed in the rear shock absorber assembly. For details, refer to the AVENSIS Repair Manual.

    4. Rear Trailing Arm Assembly

      1. The rear trailing arm assembly uses high-strength sheet steel to achieve weight reduction and high rigidity.

      2. The bush with an outer cylinder has optimized characteristics to achieve excellent ride comfort.

    5. Rear Upper Control Arm Assembly

      1. The rear upper control arm assembly uses high-strength sheet steel to achieve weight reduction and high rigidity.

      2. The rear suspension member sub-assembly side uses a bush with an outer cylinder, and the rear axle carrier sub-assembly side uses a ball bush.

    6. Rear No. 1 Suspension Arm Assembly

      1. The rear No. 1 suspension arm assembly uses a toe adjustment mechanism.

      2. The rear suspension member sub-assembly side uses a bush with an outer cylinder, and the rear axle carrier sub-assembly side uses a ball joint.

    7. Rear No. 2 Suspension Arm Assembly

      1. The rear No. 2 suspension arm assembly uses high-strength sheet steel to achieve weight reduction and high rigidity.

      2. The rear suspension member sub-assembly side uses a bush with an outer cylinder, and the rear axle carrier sub-assembly side uses a ball bush.

    8. Rear Stabilizer Bar

      1. A highly rigid, solid type rear stabilizer bar is used.

      2. A ball joint is used between the rear stabilizer link assembly and the rear stabilizer bar. The space between the rear stabilizer link assembly and rear No. 2 suspension arm assembly is cushion-structured.

      3. An assembly structure made of self-lubricant rubber and a resin spacer is provided for the rear stabilizer bush. The use of the resin spacer optimizes the rubber's characteristics to ensure high support rigidity.

      4. To reduce friction, a fluorine coating is provided in the bore diameter of the rear stabilizer bush.
