The vehicle body (F) is tilted in a curve by raising its side (9) facing away from the centre of curvature while the side of the body facing towards the centre of curvature remains substantially unaffected and at a predetermined level. The vehicle can thereby be provided with small wheels (4) and the constructional height of the body reduced. - The tilting, which is performed by hydraulic cylinders, may be in conjunction with radial displacement of the wheel axes. The vehicle, which may be an articulated street tram, may be propelled by wheel-associated hydraulic motors.
