Active Suspension Systems has been major research area in vehicle dynamics since last decade. In this paper, we review research and
development of automotive active suspensions systems. Structures and models of various automotive suspensions are described.
Furthermore, typical commercial products of automotive suspensions are illustrated. Based on the reported studies and development, the
comparisons between various vehicular suspensions from the aspects of structure, weight, cost, ride comfort, handling performance,
reliability, dynamic performance, energy recovery, and commercial maturity are presented. After comprehensive studies, it is deduced
that electromagnetic active suspensions are the future trend of automotive suspensions due to simple structure, high-bandwidth, accurate
and flexible force control, high ride quality, good handling performance, and energy regeneration.
