Engine Mount: Description and Operation

GENERAL INFORMATION

[2.0L ENGINE NON-TURBO, 2.4L ENGINE]

To support the power plant, the inertial axis four-point mount system has been adopted.
The system has the following features:

- For the engine and transaxle mounting insulator, the cylindrical liquid seal mount has been adopted. It reduces the idling vibration and acceleration noise, and improves riding comfort.

- For the engine mounting bracket, lightweight and high rigidity aluminum has been adopted to reduce acceleration noise.

- For the transaxle mounting bracket, lightweight and high rigidity sheet metal has been adopted to reduce the gear noise.

- For the front and rear roll stoppers, insulators developed exclusively for M/T vehicle or CVT vehicle have been adopted. It reduces the idling vibration and acceleration/deceleration shock.

- A front axle crossmember has been adopted to improve steering ability.

[2.0L ENGINE TURBO]

For the power plant support, the inertial axis four-point mounting system is adopted, and the system has the following features.

- Environmental-load substances are totally abolished for hexavalent chromium-free and lead-free components.

- For the engine and transaxle mounting insulator, the cylindrical liquid seal mountings are adopted. This reduces idling vibration and acceleration noise, and improves riding comfort.

- A front axle crossmember is adopted to improve steering ability.

- The mass damper is added into the center member to reduce muffled sound during acceleration.

- The front axle crossmember bar is added to enhance rigidity.
