[0002] The rear subframe is an important part of the vehicle chassis, and the suspension system is fixed to the vehicle body through the rear subframe; since the rear subframe can bring good suspension connection stiffness, reduce the vibration transmitted from the road surface, and bring good comfort, during driving, the loads generated by road conditions such as acceleration, braking, climbing, and steering will all be transmitted to the rear subframe. Therefore, the rear subframe must have sufficient strength and durability to be able to work stably within the service life cycle of the whole vehicle and ensure driving safety; RDU refers to the rear-wheel power automatic distribution system, also known as the torque vectoring distribution system. When the left rear wheel slips, the system will transmit the power of the left rear wheel to the right rear wheel; similarly, when the right rear wheel slips, the system will transmit the power of the right rear wheel to the left rear wheel.
