FULLY ACTIVE SUSPENSION

WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT ADAPTIVE suspension here. Active suspension is different.

- WORDS: PAUL HORRELL

It can actually generate a moving force in the suspension. So it'll pull a wheel into the body when you hit a bump and push it down for a pothole. Force sensors and accelerometers in the suspension and body measure when a wheel hits a bump, or when braking or cornering loads would cause dive or roll. Actuators then keep things level.
