Suspension - Rear: Description

Vehicle is equipped with semi-independent rear suspension. Unit combines advantages of independent semi-trailing suspension and a beam axle. Rear suspension is also designed to provide passive rear steering due to deformable rubber bushings which allow the rear axle to shift slightly as cornering loads increase. See Fig 1.
