What are the functions of electronically controlled suspension?
1 Answers
Electronically controlled suspension has basic functions including vehicle height adjustment, damping force control, and spring stiffness control. Below are the relevant introductions: 1. Vehicle height adjustment: The electronically controlled suspension can maintain a constant vehicle height, keeping the car body level, thereby ensuring the direction of the headlight beam remains unchanged. When driving on rough roads, it can raise the vehicle height to prevent the axle from hitting the road surface. When driving at high speeds, it can lower the vehicle height to reduce air resistance and improve handling stability. 2. Damping force control: By adjusting the damping coefficient of the shock absorber, the electronically controlled suspension prevents the rear of the car from squatting during rapid starts or acceleration; prevents the front of the car from sinking during emergency braking; prevents the car body from swaying sideways during sharp turns; and prevents the car body from swaying longitudinally during gear shifts, thereby improving ride comfort and handling stability. 3. Spring stiffness control: Similar to the shock absorber, under various operating conditions, the electronically controlled suspension adjusts the spring elasticity coefficient to enhance the car's ride comfort and handling stability.
