A street sports suspension kit is currently under development for the CX-80.

It has also been well received in the CX-60."Street Sports Suspension Kit"However, even if they are sibling models, the weight and wheelbase are significantly different, so they cannot be compatible with the same specifications.
We are currently developing a new specification with settings specifically for the CX-80.

This product is a suspension kit designed for use on the street.
The combination of twin-tube dampers, which quickly generate damping force the moment the car starts moving, and special springs with a deliberately reduced spring constant precisely controls changes in posture.
In addition to crisp responsiveness, we aim to achieve a smooth ride with reduced jerking sensation.

The development process began with a detailed examination of the vehicle weight, front-rear balance, and various other conditions specific to the CX-80, and the direction of the specifications was thoroughly considered at a desk.
The prototype suspension was then fitted to an actual vehicle and repeated evaluation drives were conducted from multiple perspectives, including ride comfort in urban areas, how it handles bumps, steering responsiveness and roll speed on winding roads, and straight-line stability on highways.

The standard amount of lowering is approximately -25mm.
These figures not only improve dynamic performance while being suitable for everyday use, but also help improve the car's styling.
Furthermore, by combining it with a styling kit, you can complete total tuning that expresses your individuality not only in terms of driving performance but also in terms of the visual appearance.

The release is scheduled for around the end of July.
We are currently in the final stages of development, so please look forward to it for a little while longer.
