<p>A spring constant of each of four suspension springs and a shared load on each of four wheels are adjusted so that a sprung resonance frequency É Fr corresponding to two front wheels 12FR, 12FL and a sprung resonance frequency É Rr corresponding to two rear wheels 12RR, 12RL are mutually different. From among the four shock absorbers 32, only two shock absorbers 32RR, 32RL provided corresponding to two wheels of lowered sprung resonance frequency, from among the two front wheels 12FR, 12FL and the two rear wheels 12RR, 12RL, have respectively damping coefficient modification mechanisms that modify a damping coefficient serving as a reference of the magnitude of the damping force generated by the two shock absorbers. The behavior of the entire vehicle body can be effectively curbed by controlling the damping force exerted on the comparatively large movement of sprung sections corresponding to the two wheels 12RR, 12RL. Thus a vehicle having both enhanced steering stability and enhanced ride quality can be configured comparatively inexpensively.</p> |
