Page 46: Enhanced Braking
The simplicity of the new system also means that no electronics or movable valves are required. A key contributor to the Accord Euro’s chassis dynamics is the body/platform rigidity. As a result of careful analysis of the body structure, the rear suspension vertical rigidity is increased by 20 per cent, while front suspension horizontal rigidity is increased by 35 per cent, compared to the previous model. -
