Introduction - SUSPENSION AND WHEELS

Front suspension, independent, McPherson type with cast iron wishbones anchored to an auxiliary crossmember.

Offset coil springs and double acting, telescopic, hydraulic shock absorbers. Anti-roll torsion bar.

The rear suspension is the 'torsion axle' type (semi-independent wheels).

Coil springs and double acting, telescopic, hydraulic shock absorbers.

The front and rear wheel hubs on versions equipped with A.B.S. have an instrument bearing for the active sensors (refer to group 33) which replace the flywheel on previous systems.

Both the front and rear track figures are wider than for existing models which have the same suspension and the wheel rims with a 6' channel improve both stability round bends and tyre road holding.
