Perimeter type (crossed parallel) suspension mem-
bers are used in the front suspension to improve driv-
ing stability.
FEATURES
• Reduction of vibration and noise because the en-
tire suspension system is elastically supported by
rubber bushings.
• Ideal wheel alignment for superior driving stability
and riding comfort.
• Adoption of anti-driving geometry for outstanding
driving stability.
Adoption of negative offset geometry for out-
standing braking stability.
• Offset coil springs for outstanding riding comfort.
• Improved serviceability due to the adoption of a
camber adjustment mechanism.
