Rear Suspension

Rear suspension




The rear suspension of the car consists of two front-rear trailing arms (1) with integrated transverse arms (2). The rear wheels are suspended on the trailing arms.
The rear suspension also includes an anti-roll bar (3), it consists of a bar.




The transverse arms are supported in a transverse mounting (4) in the opposite trailing arm. In principle both trailing arms with the transverse arms operate as a unit, however rubber bushings allow a degree of movement in relationship to each other.
Each trailing arm is mounted to the body via a steering link (5) (rear axle link). The steering link allows the wheel limited pre-determined changes in direction. The steering link system compensates for the rear axle elasticity by resisting lateral forces. When the bodywork is subjected to lateral force during cornering the rear wheels move sideways without affecting the steering.
This design allows the car to retain neutral steering, making it stable and easy to control.
The rear wheels have a negative camber of 1.0°
