What is the front suspension of the new Sylphy?
2 Answers
The front suspension of the new Sylphy is a MacPherson independent suspension, which consists of a coil spring, shock absorber, and triangular lower control arm. This combination saves space in the engine compartment, making it more flexible, and the suspension is relatively lightweight, helping to reduce body roll during driving and ensuring vehicle stability. The new Sylphy is a compact sedan launched by Nissan, with dimensions of 4641mm in length, 1815mm in width, and 1450mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2712mm. The car features an added multifunctional LCD display that supports various functions such as navigation and rearview camera, and it can also work with the audio system to support DVD and VCD playback.
Speaking of the front suspension of the new Sylphy, I think it uses a MacPherson strut suspension system, which is quite common in many Japanese cars. That design combines the shock absorber and spring into a single strut, making the overall structure simple and efficient. It feels particularly stable on daily roads, such as when passing over potholes, with less bumpiness, improving ride comfort. I once test-drove my friend's Sylphy and felt it had strong handling, precise steering, and minimal body roll when cornering. However, it's important to maintain it regularly, checking if the struts are deformed or leaking oil, as this could affect balance. Overall, this type of suspension is highly practical, suitable for city commuting, and relatively inexpensive to repair.
