Suspension System
Suspension System
The system of springs, shock absorbers, and linkages connecting a vehicle to its wheels.
Cornering (in vehicle dynamics)
Cornering (in vehicle dynamics)
Allows vehicles to navigate curves while minimizing body roll; contributes to stability; and maintains tire contact with the road.

Study Notes
Suspension System
- The system of spring, shock absorber, and linkages that connects a vehicle to its wheels is called the Suspension System.
Importance of Suspension System
- The Suspension System is needed to absorb bumps and unevenness on the road, providing a smooth ride for passengers.
Vehicle Dynamics
- The vehicle dynamic principle that refers to the ability of the vehicle to travel a curved path while minimizing body roll is called Roll Steering.
Coil Spring and Shock Absorber
- Shock absorbers work alongside coil springs to help control the impact from them.
Control Arms and Steering
- Control arms help the vehicle turn left and right and can also help control arms with their up-and-down motion.
- Control arms are part of the car suspension system that help with turning and steering.
