General

A torsion beam type suspension with toe control links has been adopted, in which an axle beam is located
in the middle of the trailing arm.

The torsion beam type rear suspension minimizing change in the tire-to-road camber during cornering,
thus delivering good cornering stability and driving stability.

The stabilizer bar has been adopted to realize excellent drivability and stability.

A toe control link mechanism has been adopted in the construction of the trailing arm bushings. The toe-
correct function that is effected by the movement of the links results in optimal compliance steering, thus
achieving excellent drivability, stability, and riding comfort at high levels.
