Outline
A strut type front suspension has been adopted.
The connection area of the front crossmember and body is a 6-point rigid mount type.

The cross-section on the center member of the front crossmember has been expanded and the longitudinal offset of the front lower arm installation position reduced to realize an optimized framework.

For the front crossmember, the welded part of the flange has been eliminated (flange-less), the cross-section expanded and the connection rigidity of the welded parts improved to achieve both rigidity and light weight.

The caster angle and caster trail of the front suspension have been increased.
