| Extended
wheelbase liberates valuable space inside!
Even
in its earlier avatar as the Siena Weekend, the estate version had
a wheelbase that was longer than that of the Siena sedan. Now the
wheelbase of the Adventure at 2463mm is 40mm more than that of the
Siena Weekend and 90mm more than that of the new Siena sedan.
The suspension is the same as that of the earlier Weekend and differs
from the Siena sedan only at the rear where the Adventure features
independent suspension with longitudinal wishbones and anti roll bar
along with coil springs, like in the Palio 1.6. The added advantage
of this rear layout is that it provides for a uniform rear luggage
bay with minimum protrusion.
