Toyota Hilux BEV rear axle

The Mercedes-Benz G580 EQ's rear De Dion suspension with Watt's linkage is quite uncommon. The electric version (BEV) of the brand new Toyota Hilux (xN2xx) also has a rear De Dion suspension.

Moreover, this rear De Dion suspension has leaf springs. I like the trend of using De Dion suspensions on electric vehicles.
