The functions of the small convex mirror on the rearview mirror: 1. Reduce blind spots: During daily driving, due to certain blind spots in the driver's line of sight, it is often difficult to notice some overtaking situations, which can lead to unnecessary accidents. Installing a small convex mirror on the rearview mirror can eliminate the blind spot on the right rear side of the vehicle. 2. Make reversing easier: Normally, drivers cannot see the sides of the car body or the rear wheels while driving. With the small convex mirror installed, it expands the driver's field of vision, making it easier to see the position of the rear wheels when reversing. For beginners, parking in reverse becomes much simpler.

What type of suspension does the Toyota Prado use?

Toyota Prado uses a double-wishbone independent suspension at the front and a four-link non-independent suspension at the rear. The Toyota Prado features a body-on-frame construction, which is a major characteristic of hardcore off-road vehicles. The vehicle's chassis is equipped with steel protective plates, and its robust frame allows the Prado to adapt to various road conditions while also withstanding impacts from the road surface. The Prado's double-wishbone independent suspension is a type of suspension that leans towards performance. Due to the addition of an upper A-arm, this type of suspension occupies more space compared to a MacPherson strut independent suspension. After adopting this suspension, the four-wheel alignment parameter calibration also becomes more complex. The Toyota Prado has a body size of 4840mm in length, 1885mm in width, and 1890mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2790mm.
