Aluminium compact rear axle

The aluminium compact rear axle incorporates four aluminium control arms for the wheels. It is connected elastically to the axle subframe which, in turn, is mounted elastically on the body of the car.

The wheel control arms are geometrically arranged to deliver a precisely calculated rear wheel steering effect in conjunction with the rubber mounts. Regardless of road speed and the load the car is carrying, this elastokinematic steering behaviour ensures optimum tracking and directional stability and helps to completely eliminate any load change response. Combined with the significant degree of body stiffness, the outstanding comfort provided by both rear axles ensures firm spring and damper action, significantly enhancing road contact and handling.
