Is the weight distribution of the Changan Kalam unbalanced when fully loaded, affecting vehicle stability?

Drivers report swaying o r poor control at higher speeds. Is improper load balance due to chassis o r suspension design?

Yes. Users have observed:

Rear swaying

Loss of steering stability

Braking imbalance

This is largely due to:

Rear-heavy loading cargo concentrated at the back

Soft front suspension

Short wheelbase-to-body ratio, which makes it prone to rear axle overload

It appears the chassis and suspension were not optimized for balanced loading when cargo is uneven o r near capacity.
