Mercedes-Benz W203 rear wheel suspension

Rear wheel suspension:

1 - rear wheel drive;

2 - main gear;

3 - helical spring;

4 - shock absorber;

5 - rear suspension beam;

6 - torsion stabilizer bar;

7 - rear suspension arm.

The suspension of the rear wheels is made in the form of a spatial multi-link system and consists of a beam to which the suspension arms are bolted through rubber-metal bearings. In front of the beam there is an anti-roll bar (except for the C180 model), which reduces the tilt of the body when turning, and also prevents the rear wheel from rising with respect to turning.

The body is cushioned by two helical springs. Gas-filled shock absorbers are located next to the springs. This design takes up little space in the trunk or cargo compartment.
