NG: REAR SUSPENSION
• An E-type multi-link rear suspension has been adopted.
• Link layout has been optimized to control the rear wheel alignment appropriately against the external force.
• A wider luggage compartment is ensured due to the separated positioning of the shock absorber and coil
spring.
• Also due to the separated positioning of the shock absorber and coil spring, side force on the shock absorber is
reduced so that the suspension system operates smoothly and riding comfort is improved.
• Setting the trailing links at the front in a higher installation position controls nose dive during braking and has
improved handling stability. As a result, tire road-hold has been improved, and excellent cornering performance
and handling stability has been realized.
