What type of suspension does the GAC Trumpchi GS4 have?
2 Answers
GAC Trumpchi GS4 adopts front MacPherson and rear four-link independent suspension. The following is a related introduction about independent suspension: 1. The suspension system is the general term for all force-transmitting connection devices between the car frame and the axle or wheels. 2. The suspension system is a crucial system in modern automobiles. The following is an introduction to the functions of the suspension system: 1. It transmits forces and moments between the wheels and the frame, buffers the impact force transmitted from uneven road surfaces to the frame or body, and dampens the resulting vibrations to ensure smooth driving. 2. The suspension system should have the function of supporting the body and improving ride comfort.
As an experienced GS4 owner for three years, I'm quite familiar with its chassis. It features MacPherson strut independent suspension in the front and multi-link independent suspension at the rear - a pretty decent combination for a 100,000-yuan class SUV. The rear wheels don't interfere with each other when going over speed bumps, and the rear passengers feel noticeably less vibration compared to vehicles with torsion beam suspension. During high-speed lane changes, the front responds quickly while the rear wheels follow nicely; the manufacturer tuned it for comfort but with adequate support. However, the chassis insulation isn't great on rough roads - you can hear stones hitting the undercarriage quite clearly. I'd recommend applying underbody armor after purchase.
