1. GENERAL INFORMATION
FRONT SUSPENSION
Front Suspension is McPherson type, independent suspension, Lower Wishbone with the Damper Assembly
and the spring acting as both damping and flexible elements at the same time, structural and kinematic
elements.
The main components of this structure are:
Front lower control arm:
sheet metal arm with conventional rubber bush at front and hydra bush at rear
pivot.
Suspension bushes
have been exclusively designed to improve the comfort, adopted asymmetric
stiffness for the rear LCA bush to reduce the impart harness during acceleration and braking.
Front subframe
creates structure with BIW which helps in crash, supports suspension components. It is
full subframe with bushes at mounting location which improves NVH (noise vibration & harshness).
“Rubberized” top mount
for improved filtering of road vibrations and noise at the same time
guaranteeing excellent structural strength favoring driving precision.
Anti-roll bar with Stab link
mounted on the Damper Assembly that allow improved stabilizing efficiency
and better dynamic responsiveness around bends.
Double acting telescopic hydraulic Damper Assembly
with improved lateral rigidity assisting road
holding during cornering. Valve assemblies have been selected for excellent vibration damping.
Method of attachment to the body shell has also been improved; rubberized anchorage on the
suspension tower improves the noise isolation. There by improving comfort.
