Do other models other than high end models have this active suspension? Is it a generally accepted form of suspension control, like the transition from carburetors to fuel injection?
There's all kinds of cool stuff you can get added on to a car if you are willing to pay a very high price for it. Once the Toyota Corolla has an active control suspension, I'll be impressed.

My jaguar has CATS active suspension system. A single cpu module on every wheel, and a central cpu module that talks to the other 4. Almost identical to the bose system except that the linear motor is controlled by air pressure instead. Mercedes and Cadillac have had active suspension systems for quite some time. My fathers 1971 mercedes had an active air suspension system that was all mechanical. Bose once again re-invents the wheel. |
