Engine compartment of the car: 1 - right support of the power unit (is located under the air filter); 2 - engine; 3 - gearbox; 4 — left support of the power unit (located under the battery shelf)
The power unit is mounted on four rubber-metal supports. The right and left supports of the power unit are attached to the body side members, the rear and front ones are attached to the subframe.
The front suspension arms and front anti-roll bar are also attached to the subframe. The subframe itself is attached to the body with bolts.
View from below the car (front part): 1 - engine crankcase protection; 2 — subframe
In addition, the steering mechanism is mounted on the subframe. The subframe reliably protects it from possible impacts from road irregularities, but makes it difficult to access in case of repair.
Bottom view (middle part): 1 - subframe reinforcements; 2 - additional muffler for the exhaust system; 3.4— heat-reflecting screens
The rear suspension beam is attached directly to the body brackets using two rubber-metal hinges. The springs and shock absorbers are installed separately. They rest on the levers and rest against the body from above.
Bottom view (rear end): 1 - rear suspension shock absorber; 2 - rear suspension spring; 3 - spare wheel; 4 — rear suspension trailing arm; 5 - fuel tank; 6 — rear suspension cross beam; 7 — exhaust system muffler
