Features
Improved drivability, reduced noise and vibration
• Concurrent with the MZR-CD (RF Turbo) engine and 4WD system, the configuration of the front drive shaft and
the joint shaft has been optimized.
• For 4WD models, a constant velocity joint system has been adopted for the rear drive shaft.

Structure
• Engine noise and vibration have been reduced due to adoption of a bell joint on the wheel side of the constant
velocity joint.
• A low noise and vibration double offset joint with low slide resistance has been adopted for the differential side
of the constant velocity joint. Due to this booming resonance at high speed is reduced.
• An extremely durable plastic has been adopted for the wheel side boot.
