What type of suspension does the Haval F5 use?
2 Answers
Haval F5 adopts MacPherson independent suspension for the front and double-wishbone independent suspension for the rear. The Haval F5 is equipped with two engines: a low-power version 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and a high-power version 1.5-liter turbocharged engine. The Haval F5 is a compact SUV under the Haval brand, with dimensions of 4470mm in length, 1857mm in width, and 1638mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2680mm. The Haval F5 features a golden body proportion design, with an elongated hood, wide body, and a coupe-style design. The dynamic double waistline, combined with black and silver sport side panels, creates a low-front and high-rear sporty stance. The dazzling ambient lighting further enhances the cabin atmosphere with different styles.
As a frequent driver of the Haval F5, I'm very familiar with its suspension. It features a MacPherson independent suspension at the front, which feels quite soft when going over speed bumps, and the steering wheel doesn't shake uncontrollably. The rear has a double-wishbone independent suspension, which provided much more stability during mountain road curves compared to my friend's car with a torsion beam setup. The two transverse arms and longitudinal control rods are clearly visible under the chassis, and the vibration damping over potholes is surprisingly good. However, the rear can still feel a bit bumpy over consecutive speed bumps—after all, it's an SUV in the 100,000-yuan price range, with overall tuning leaning toward sportiness, giving a strong sense of security when cornering. I drive 20 kilometers on national highways daily for my commute, and this suspension setup really handles various road conditions well.
