Bluntness

Comparing newer NCP10 TOYOTA Vitz with EP82 TOYOTA Starlet, the riding comfort  is remarkably improved. Judging from the axle constructions's point of view, many compliance bushes are applied on the arm hinge points here and there, mainly being purposed on the consumptions of horizontal shocking vectors.
In another words, by making the arms easily move to backward and to inside when stress is imput on hub position.
But hung on a second here!
Hub position easily moves on every time stress comes in ?
The principle exists, hub position must not be moved as less as possible to obtain certain steering reaction. If moved steering stability is spoiled so much and is affected by the phisical property of the deformable rubber compliance bushes directly, far from astringent, dull, muddy and sticky reactions.
Remembering BLE SUBARU B4, same kind of application of clucked compliance bushes were encountered on arm hinge positions, resultantly dull, unreliable steering reactions were the same as upper descriptions.
On NCP10, rear lateral arm is omitted with H shaped beam axle construction, may be the main reason of dull reaction, though the factory designers insist the validity with the pseudo words like "Self toe control system".
