What are the components of the Audi Q5 chassis?
1 Answers
Audi Q5 chassis introduction is as follows: Subframe: The subframe has a frame-shaped structure reinforced with two diagonally arranged steel plates, further strengthening the overall subframe construction. The subframe is made of steel. Front Suspension: The Audi Q5's front suspension is a five-link type, with both the lower control arm and lower rear control arm made of aluminum. The tie rod and lower rear control arm feature significant curvature to prevent interference with the wheels during full left/right steering lock, thereby increasing turning angle. The pivot axis of the lower rear control arm is diagonally arranged to partially withstand longitudinal vehicle forces. Rear Subframe: The Q5's rear subframe also adopts a frame structure. Compared with the front subframe, it eliminates the cross-bracing steel plates but features a larger and more robust framework. The rear subframe is also steel-made. Rear Suspension: The Audi Q5's rear suspension uses a trapezoidal multi-link design. The H-shaped control arm, though appearing bulky, is actually a hollow structure made of aluminum (same material as the bearing hub). The rear suspension spring features an enlarged diameter to adequately support the Q5's body weight, with a different connection point to the hydraulic shock absorber. The shock absorber passes through the H-shaped control arm to connect with the wheel bearing hub.
