GENERAL DESCRIPTION
A McPherson strut-type suspension has been used at the front, and a trailing arm type multi-link suspension has been used at the rear.

REAR SUSPENSION
A trailing arm type multi-link suspension has been adopted as the rear suspension. This suspension is basically the same as that of the current MIRAGE except for the followings:
^ Individual geometries such as tread expansion, linearisation of toe change optimized for improvement of driving stability and ride feeling
^ Outside diameter of trailing arm bushing increased (70 mm to 81 mm) to reduce road noise

FEATURES
^ Spring and shock absorber stored in wheel house to secure large interior space
^ Spring and shock absorber stored in wheel house to secure large interior space
^ Stroke at suspension extending side increased for improvement of ride feeling and road stability.
^ Suspension bushings optimized for improvement of ride feeling and road noise
^ Spring characteristics of bump rubber optimized for improvement of driving stability and ride feeling
