Motor vehicle with active suspensions and control method of the motor vehicle

Abstract

A motor vehicle comprises a suspended mass comprising a body, an unsprung mass comprising a plurality of wheels to allow the motor vehicle to move forward on a road, an active suspension assembly configured to suspend the suspended mass relative to the unsprung mass and controllable to move the suspended mass relative to the unsprung mass, an engine carried by the body, a transmission connecting the engine to at least two of said wheels, thereby defining traction wheels, such that the engine can deliver torque to the traction wheels causing acceleration of the motor vehicle, and a control unit configured to control the active suspension assembly during said acceleration and/or in a steady state of the motor vehicle prior to said acceleration imposing a displacement of the suspended mass relative to the unsprung mass according to a yaw axis of the motor vehicle to increase the maximum transmissible force from the traction wheels to the road.
