What is the ground clearance of the Touareg chassis?
1 Answers
The ground clearance of the Volkswagen Touareg is 170mm, with a minimum ground clearance of 160mm. The Volkswagen Touareg chassis adopts a combination of front MacPherson and rear E-type multi-link suspension. Below is relevant information about the Volkswagen Touareg: 1. The lower control arm of the Touareg's front suspension is made of cast iron to better bear the larger loads generated by the heavier body on the suspension system. Using better materials can also enhance the suspension's load-bearing capacity while maintaining lightweight. 2. One reason the Touareg uses a MacPherson front suspension is that the MQB platform adopts a MacPherson front suspension design. As a derivative model of this platform, the Touareg retains the platform's universal design. To cope with the increased front suspension load, the Touareg's front suspension not only uses a cast iron lower control arm but also a cast iron bearing seat. 3. The lower control arm of the front suspension is connected to the subframe through two bushings, with the rear bushing being a hydraulic bushing. Compared to ordinary rubber bushings, hydraulic bushings provide better vibration filtration when the vehicle passes over large bumps and potholes.
