compact with integration. Removal and installation of the rear axle including the rack and pinion have
become easier.
Steering wheel
■
General
1. The steering wheel outside diameter is changed from 380 mm (15.0 in) to 360 mm (14.2 in) for easier
operation.
2. Tilt steering with memory is adopted.
3. Since the steering tilt angle is memorized when the steering column is raised and returned to the
original position, no re-setting is necessary.
4. The steering wheel adjustable angle is widened from 6
° on the previous models to 9°.
