Rear suspension stabilization (Mazda 3 BK)

When the load on the rear wheels increases, the rear suspension springs are deformed, the rear part of the body is lowered and the ground clearance decreases. The stabilization device automatically maintains the ground clearance at a given level. The rear suspension is stabilized while the car is moving.

Stable ground clearance improves driving stability and ride smoothness.

Ground clearance is stabilized when the load on the rear wheels increases by approximately 140–300 kg.

Stabilization of ground clearance in the rear suspension area is not possible if the load mass is too low or exceeds 300 kg,

To return the ground clearance to the specified level, it is necessary to drive a distance of 4-5 km in urban conditions or 8-10 km on the highway. However, the specified distances may vary depending on the load and its location.

The ground clearance will increase after the vehicle is unloaded. After the vehicle has traveled a distance of 0.4–0.5 km, the ground clearance will return to the set level.
