Rear Suspension; Outline; Structural View - Mazda 6 Training Manual

OUTLINE

• An E-type multi-link rear suspension, unique to the Mazda6 (GG) model, has been adopted.
• The rear suspension design includes a link layout that provides both handling stability and riding comfort, and
creates suitable camber control characteristics.
• E-type multi-link rear suspension arm/link layout is similar link layout to that of the conventional multi-link rear
suspension, ecept for the separated layout of shock absorber and coil spring.
• The coil spring and shock absorber have been separated, and the coil spring is held between the rear
crossmember and rear lower arm. This enables the shock absorber and the coil spring to be located closer
together for a lower and flatter passenger cabin floor.
• The separated layout of shock absorber and coil spring eliminayes friction between the two parts. Also, shock
absorber side force is reduced so the suspension system operates smoothly and riding comfort is improved.
