Abstract
A suspension control system for an automotive vehicle is designed for effectively suppressing pitching motion and whereby regulating vehicular attitude. The suspension control system monitors pitching moment to be exerted on the vehicle for adjusting response characteristics in pitching-suppressive control depending upon the magnitude of the pitching moment to be exerted. The suspension control system adjusts the response characteristics of the front and rear suspensions independently of each other according to preset pitching-suppressive control coefficients respectively for the front and rear suspensions, which are set depending upon the suspension characteristics and/or suspension geometory of the vehicle, to which the suspension control system is to be applied.
