Intsimbi ye-A588 yaziwa kakhulu ngesakhono sayo semozulu. Xa ibonakaliswe kwiimeko zangaphandle, iimpawu zayo ezixhathisa ukubola ziba namandla, nangona zingapeyintwanga. Intsimbi ye-A588 inokuxhathisa umhlwa ngokuphindwe kane njengentsimbi yekhabhoni. Kwaye i-A588 inoluhlu olubanzi lwezicelo ezibandakanya ukuhanjiswa kunye neenqaba zefowuni, iimoto zomthwalo, ibhulorho kunye nezakhiwo zendlela kunye ne-guardrails ngenxa yokuzilungisa, i-patina ye-oxide yendalo iyanciphisa kakhulu ukugcinwa. Le ntsimbi ikwagcina umlinganiselo obalaseleyo wokomelela ukuya kubunzima, ihlangabezana neemfuno zamandla entsimbi yekhabhoni ngelixa inobunzima obungaphantsi kakhulu.
