Rear Suspension
Rear Suspension:
A newly-developed multi-link type of suspension has been adopted for the rear suspension. The layout of each arm and the rigidity balance of each bushing have been rationalized to provide both excellent steering stability and riding comfort.
The rear axle consists of a knuckle, rear hub, unit bearing and axle shaft. The unit bearing is press-fitted to the rear axle shaft and bolted to the knuckle. Also, the unit bearing utilizes the same type of double row angular contact ball bearing as does the front axle. In vehicles with ABS, a ABS-rotor for detecting the vehicle speed is located on the rear axle shaft, and a speed sensor is located on the knuckle.
