OUTLINE
A multi-link type suspension, which consists of 2 upper control arms, 2 suspension arms and a toe control arm (rear steering tie rod assembly), is used.
Through the use of optimal suspension geometry in combination with urethane bound stoppers and rear stabilizer bushings, the rear suspension ensures excellent controllability, vehicle stability and ride comfort.
Changes to the toe during suspension stroke are suppressed as much as possible, ensuring that a straight line is kept in spite of road surface disturbances. In addition, the rear suspension arm bracket assembly is located rearward ensuring excellent traction and stability when turning.
A forged-aluminum, hollow type arm is used to achieve a lightweight yet highly rigid structure.
By keeping suspension friction low, a very comfortable ride resisting road surface input is ensured and steering has been enhanced due to the responsive suspension stroke.
The toe control arm (rear steering tie rod assembly) is directly tightened with the rear suspension arm bracket assembly, ensuring high rigidity.
