Abstract
A suspension system for an automotive vehicle has a cylinder interposed between a sprang weight and an unsprung weight for each of wheels so as to control the supply or discharge of operating liquid to the cylinder independently and separately, thereby controlling the posture of the vehicle body. This suspension system allows a slow control over the posture of the vehicle body, for example, by lowering a control gain for the posture control when the vehicle body is jacked up in order to exchange tires, inspection of the vehicle body, etc., to a greater degree than when the vehicle is running at ordinary conditions.
