ABSTRACT:
The suspension system of the present invention comprises support means installed between a wheel and the vehicle body exerting suspension force which can be changed irrespective of relative displacement between the wheel and the vehicle body. According to low frequency components of a parameter which respresents changing condition of the relative displacement, the support means is controlled to exert a suspension force in such a way that the relative displacement can be suppressed. Such parameters include the relative displacement and the rate of the change thereof.
According to the present invention, suspension characteristics can be maintained to maintain riding qualities and rolling and pitching properties in a preferable condition throughout all running conditions.
