GENERAL INFORMATION
FRONT AXLE26-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
M2260000100701
The front axle consists of front hub, wheel bearing,
knuckles and driveshafts, and has the following fea
-
tures:
•The wheel bearing incorporates magnetic
encoder for wheel speed sensing.
•The driveshaft incorporates EBJ-TJ type constant
velocity joint <4A9-CVT, 4A9-M/T (LS)>,
EBJ-ETJ type constant velocity joint <4A9-M/T
(VR)>, BJ-TJ type constant velocity joint <4G1>.
•The dynamic damper is mounted to reduce differ-
ential gear noise.
•The bracket assembly is mounted to reduce
torque steer. < 4G1>
•For environmental protection, a lead-free grease
is used on the joints.
EBJ(Eight Ball Fixed Joint):The use of the
smaller-sized eight balls inside the joint achieves
weight saving and compact size compared with a
BJ(Birfield Joint).
ETJ(Eco type Tripod Joint):This joint achieves
weight saving and compact size compared with a
TJ(Tripod Joint).

GENERAL INFORMATION
M2330000100824
Newly developed MacPherson strut suspension has
been adopted.
•The steering gear box is installed in the lower
position for better cornering performance.
•The roll centre and the kingpin axle are installed
appropriately for better cornering performance.
•The long stroke strut is adopted for sufficient road
holding quality.
•High-rigid and light-weight flat crossmember is
adopted for sufficient suspension rigidity.
•The strut coil spring is installed appropriately for
friction reduction and comfortable ride.
•The coil spring of high tension material is adopted
for weight reduction.
•The open-section lower arm is adopted for weight
reduction.

GENERAL INFORMATION
ENGINE COOLING14-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
M2140000100638
The cooling system is a water-cooled pressurized,
forced circulation type which offers the following fea
-
tures:
•To stabilize engine coolant temperature, the ther-
mostat is located at the coolant inlet port from the
radiator.
•To improve engine cooling performance and save
weight, a plastic radiator tank and aluminium radi
-
ator fins are used.
•In order to save the weight, the A/C condenser
fan has been abolished, and one-fan system has
been adopted to secure sufficient cooling effect
using the radiator fan only.
•A radiator condenser tank integrated with a radia-
tor has been adopted in order to save the weight.
•A cross flow type radiator assembly whose tanks
are installed on the both sides of the radiator fins
has been adopted in order to decrease the over
-
all height of the radiator and improve the aerody-
namic performance.
•Sufficient radiator fin area and cooling fan diame-
ter are secured, and the radiator fin pitch is
increased. As a result, the capacity of the cooling
fan motor is reduced cutting down the power con
-
sumption, and the noise and weight of the cooling
fan are reduced.

GENERAL INFORMATION
POWER STEERING37-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
M2370000100851
Electric power steering system has been adopted for
all models in order to ensure an optimised steering
feeling.
FEATURES
•Improved fuel consumption by reduction of
engine load, and weight saving by decrease of
the number of parts have been achieved with the
introduction of the electric power steering system.
•3-spoke type steering wheel integrated with an
SRS airbag has been adopted.
•Impact-absorbing mechanism and tilt steering
mechanism have been adopted.

FUEL TANK
FUEL SUPPLY13C-4
•A resin coating is treated on the underfloor fuel
line pipes, improving reliability.
•A fuel tank pump with low power consumption
has been adopted to reduce the alternator load.
•A plastic tank pump and gauge assembly is used
to reduce weight.
•The fuel line tube and fuel line hose are made of
the material, which does not allow fuel vapour to
pass through it as much as possible, so that the
vapour gas emission to the air is reduced.
FUEL TANK
M2134001000442
The fuel tank assembly consists of components such
as a fuel tank pump and gauge assembly, a fuel
high-pressure hose, a fuel tank hose, and a fuel tank,
and has the following features:
•The fuel tank is located underneath the rear seats
to improve safety at a collision.
•The fuel tank itself is made of a pre-coat galva-
nized steel sheet that contains no lead.
•The fuel tank pump is housed in the fuel tank to
improve collision safety.
•A fuel tank safety valve, which prevents fuel leak-
age when the vehicle banks or rolls over, is
located inside the fuel tank pump and gauge
assembly.
•The fuel high-pressure hose and fuel tank hose
are made of the material, which does not allow
fuel vapour to pass through it as much as possi
-
ble.
The fuel tank pump and gauge assembly consist of
the following components:
•Fuel tank pump
•Fuel tank gauge unit
•Fuel tank filter assembly
•Fuel pump pressure regulator <4A9>
•Fuel tank safety valve
•Fuel tank 2-way valve
