Super TestCar reviews - Mazda - MX-5 - convertibleMazda modelsSuspension14 Feb 2001 By BRUCE NEWTON MX-5 suspension is by double wishbones with coil springs, telescopic dampers and torsion bar stabilisers (22mm diameter front, 12mm rear) all-round. The front suspension geometry has been refined, with the lower arm's mounting brackets lowered to provide better control over body movement. Front castor angle and trail has also increased for improved straightline stability. The rubber bushings in the front and rear suspension arm mounts have steel collars between the outer and inner rubber rings, providing high lateral rigidity for precise handling. Did you know?Rear suspension travel is up 10mm to 100mm, while rebound remains at 76mm. The front suspension's travel is 87mmAll car reviewsAlfa Romeo Abarth Alpine Alpina Audi Aston Martin BMW Bentley Chevrolet Chery Citroen Chrysler Dodge Cupra Ferrari DS Ford Fiat FPV Foton GWM Great Wall Holden Haval HSV Honda Hyundai Hummer Isuzu Infiniti Jeep Jaguar Lamborghini Kia LDV Land Rover Lotus Lexus Maserati Mahindra McLaren Mazda Mercedes-Benz Mercedes-AMG Mini MG Nissan Mitsubishi Peugeot Opel Proton Porsche Renault Ram Rover Rolls-Royce Skoda Saab SsangYong Smart Suzuki Subaru Toyota Tesla Volvo Volkswagen |
