The chassis materials and workmanship of the new Highlander are at the mainstream level. Although the front and rear sub-frames are made of steel, the technology adopted is a more complicated welded three-dimensional structure with stronger torsional rigidity. The front of the engine is protected by a guard, and the details are in place. Because of the timely four-wheel drive system, this version of Highlander has a differential and a rear drive axle behind it. Generally speaking, the workmanship is in place.
The front suspension of Highlander adopts McPherson suspension structure, a term that many friends have heard in detail. Its advantages are simple structure and small occupied space.
The front subframe is welded and spliced by two stamped steel plates, and its torsional rigidity is stronger than that of single-layer stamped steel plates. The purpose of adding a subframe is to connect the suspenders, block the road noise and attenuate the force transmitted to the car body, and at the same time strengthen the rigidity of the chassis.
The rear suspension adopts double wishbone independent suspension, which is improved from double-link suspension.
