The new Mazda CX-60 - suspension

The Mazda CX-60's suspension consists of a double-wishbone front suspension and a multi-link rear setup. The goal was to smoothly control the sprung mass (body) during cornering and provide the best possible stability in a wide range of speed ranges. The springs and dampers operate smoothly and move straight up and down only; lateral or longitudinal movements in response to wheel input are avoided. Three factors are responsible for this: suspension geometry that compensates for vertical body movements, zero offset between the wheels' input and the dampers' support elements, and the optimized layout of the rear suspension. Die-cast aluminum has also been used to increase the rigidity of the suspension on all four wheels. This means that forces are transferred even more efficiently from the suspension to the body - and thus also more quickly from the front to the rear suspension.
