Multi-link suspension has a relatively complex structure, with higher material, R&D, and manufacturing costs compared to other suspension types. It also occupies more space, which is why small and medium-sized vehicles rarely use this suspension due to cost and space considerations.
Multi-link suspension offers the best comfort performance among all suspension types, and its handling performance is comparable to double-wishbone suspension. High-end sedans, due to their ample space and emphasis on comfort and handling stability, mostly adopt multi-link suspension, making it arguably the best choice for premium sedans.
In China, models featuring multi-link suspension for both front and rear include Beijing Sedans, Brilliance BMW 3 Series and 5 Series sedans, FAW-Volkswagen Audi A4 and A6L. Models with multi-link front suspension include Shanghai Volkswagen Lingyu. Models with multi-link rear suspension include Changan Ford, FAW-Volkswagen, GAC Honda, Shanghai GM LaCrosse, FAW Toyota Crown and Reiz, FAW Mazda 6, Soueast Motor Mitsubishi Galant, and others.
