The suspension bracket of back wheels is executed in the form of spatial multilever system and consists of a beam to which bolts via rubber-metal bearings suspension bracket levers fasten. Before a beam there is a stabilizer of cross stability (except the C180 model) reducing the body inclination at turn and also interfering raising of internal software to the relation to turn of a back wheel.

For depreciation of a body two screw springs serve. Gas-filled shock-absorbers are located near springs. Such design occupies insignificant volume in a luggage carrier or a cargo compartment.
