The new Mazda CX-60 - Suspension

Quelle: AUTOMOTOTV (Glomex)

The suspension of the Mazda CX-60 consists of a double wishbone front axle and a multi-link set-up at the rear. The goal was to gently control the sprung mass (body) during cornering and provide optimal stability in a variety of speed ranges. The springs and dampers work smoothly, moving only straight up and down; lateral or longitudinal movements in response to wheel input are avoided. Three factors are responsible for this: a suspension geometry that balances vertical movements of the body, zero offset between wheel input and damper support elements, and the optimized layout of the rear suspension. Additionally, aluminum die-casting has increased the stiffness of the suspension at all four wheels, allowing forces to be transferred more efficiently from the suspension to the body - and thus faster from the front to the rear suspension.
