Where the hybrid model is concerned, engineers have focused on achieving an even quieter ride, particularly under acceleration, intro- ducing a raft of measures including new engine mounts, roll restrictor, front driveshafts and subframe. The design of the new engine mounts and adjustments to the shock absorbers and electric power steering have also improved the hybrid’s ride comfort and steering accuracy.
