I wonder how much of a ride quality difference will be noticed, between the FWD and AWD models, when going over speed bumps and potholes.
Per the spec sheet, the FWD models (both the hybrid and Ecoboost fwd) have a torsion beam rear suspension, while the AWD models have an independent multilink rear suspension. In my case I will be driving on paved roads 99.99% of the time. Hence ride quality over bumps and potholes are my only concern, and i’m not as much concerned about ride quality on dirt roads and gravel roads.
i’ve heard that independent rear suspension is more capable / better ride quality in certain situations. Will I notice a difference in my mostly urban driving?
