Outline
E-type multi-link rear suspension has been adopted.
The longitudinal span of the rear crossmember was extended and the longitudinal offset of the rear lateral link attachment position was reduced.

Welding flanges were removed from the rear crossmember to enhance the coupling rigidity of the welded sections and reduce the weight.

The installation position of the rear trailing link was moved upward so that the longitudinal impact from the road is more easily absorbed in the vertical movement of the rear trailing link. This reduces the longitudinal force input to the rear trailing link bush, improving the ride comfort.
