What suspension system does the Lexus GSF use?
2 Answers
The Lexus GSF uses a MacPherson strut independent suspension at the front and a multi-link independent suspension at the rear. The suspension system refers to all the force-transmitting connection devices between the vehicle's frame and axles. Its functions are: to transmit forces and torques acting between the wheels and the frame, to cushion the impact from uneven road surfaces transmitted to the frame or body, and to reduce the resulting vibrations, ensuring smooth driving. The Lexus GSF is a mid-to-large-sized car with body dimensions of 4975 mm in length, 1866 mm in width, 1447 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2870 mm.
I test drove the Lexus GS F last month, and what impressed me most was its suspension system. It features a double-wishbone setup at the front and a multi-link independent suspension at the rear, complemented by adaptive variable suspension technology. The ride felt incredibly stable on the road, with remarkably minimal body roll during high-speed cornering, while remaining supple and comfortable on bumpy city streets. The adaptive system automatically adjusts stiffness, and switching to Sport mode instantly tightens everything up, making it feel like a completely different car—full of excitement. Compared to other luxury performance cars, like the Mercedes-AMG, the GS F's tuning is more balanced, never sacrificing comfort for extreme sportiness. In my opinion, the suspension design is quite clever, offering both driving pleasure and long-distance comfort—it doesn’t wear you out even after extended drives. I’d highly recommend friends to test drive it before buying to experience these details firsthand; they make a huge difference in handling.
