What are the main differences between good and bad chassis?
1 Answers
The main differences between good and bad chassis are as follows: 1. Transmission: Power is transmitted from the engine flywheel, through the clutch, to the transmission. When evaluating a chassis transmission, first look at the type of transmission, common ones include CVT, automatic, dual-clutch transmission, and manual transmission. 2. Steering: Steering systems include hydraulic power steering, electro-hydraulic power steering, and electric power steering. For sedans, electric power steering is better, while for off-road vehicles, the first two provide greater assistance. 3. Suspension: Suspension systems are generally divided into double-wishbone, MacPherson, torsion beam, and multi-link types in terms of structure. Among them, MacPherson and multi-link belong to independent suspensions, which offer better handling and comfort than non-independent suspensions. For example, MacPherson suspension is mostly used for front wheels, belongs to independent suspension, has a simple structure, good space layout, and provides excellent driving stability. Therefore, most cars today use this structure.
