That article is wrong. Motion ratio is about where the control arm has leverage over the spring. Where the strut attaches has nothing to do with it in a divorced setup like what is on the 370. The front is .65 and the rear is .55. This is from my independent measurements and I found it elsewhere as well.

edit: .55 rear motion ration if you are still divorced spring. if you are true type then it is in fact 1:1 (like a .98 or something if you want to get really particular)
