Front wheel suspension
1 - Upper support; 2 - Coil spring; 3 - Connecting rod; 4 - Shock absorber; 5 - Cross connection (rear wishbone); 6 - Anti-roll bar; 7 - Stretching (front wishbone); 8 - Steering rod; 9 - Steering knuckle; 10 - Shock absorber strut; 11 - Crossbar; 12 - Steering gear
The front suspension in the form of triangular transverse levers on each side has McPherson shock absorbers and a torsion stabilizer bar. The third arm of the front suspension is the steering rod, connecting the steering mechanism to the wheels.
The shock absorbers consist of cylindrical coil springs, double-pipe shock absorbers and large upper supports. The stabilizer does not participate in the direction of the wheels, but is connected to the shock absorbers via connecting rods.

Optimum driving characteristics and minimal tire wear are only achieved when the wheels are correctly positioned. If the tires are not properly worn or if there is insufficient road holding, optical measurements must be taken and, if necessary, the wheel alignment must be adjusted.
