What is the Difference Between Adaptive Suspension and Air Suspension?
1 Answers
1. Different Principles 1. Adaptive Suspension: Utilizes a large number of sensors to continuously monitor road conditions and analyze driver operations such as braking, steering, and acceleration. 2. Air Suspension: Based on different road conditions and signals from distance sensors, the vehicle's computer determines changes in body height and then controls the air compressor and exhaust valves to automatically compress or extend the springs, thereby reducing or increasing the chassis ground clearance to enhance high-speed stability or off-road capability. 2. Different Functions 1. Adaptive Suspension: Its function is to manually or automatically adjust the suspension's height/firmness to meet driving needs on different road surfaces. 2. Air Suspension: It reduces or increases the chassis ground clearance to enhance high-speed stability or off-road capability. 3. Different Characteristics 1. Adaptive Suspension: Directly affects the vehicle's comfort and handling. 2. Air Suspension: Air suspension can reduce tire pressure to prevent skidding, while hydraulic suspension is suitable for high-speed driving, mountain roads, and river crossings, each having its own advantages.
