Vehicle and method of controlling the same

A vehicle comprising:

• a sensor unit for detecting driving information of the vehicle;
• a front wheel suspension and a rear wheel suspension, each provided on a front wheel and a rear wheel of the vehicle, respectively, and each including a spring and a damper;
• and
• a control unit for, when a driving mode of the vehicle is an autonomous driving mode or a semi-autonomous driving mode, setting a degree of sensitivity for controlling damping force of the front wheel suspension and rear wheel suspension based on a distance to a vehicle ahead of the vehicle detected by the sensor unit, and adjusting the damping force of the front wheel suspension and rear wheel suspension according to a state of a change in distance to the vehicle ahead and a state of acceleration and deceleration of the vehicle,
• wherein the control unit is configured to set the degree of sensitivity for controlling the damping force of the front wheel suspension and the rear wheel suspension to one of a plurality of modes by comparing the distance to the vehicle ahead with a plurality of reference distances,
• wherein when the degree of sensitivity for controlling the damping force of the suspension is increased, the damping force of the suspension is automatically adjusted to be large through a small control input, and
• wherein when the degree of sensitivity to control the damping force of the suspension is reduced, the damping force of the suspension is automatically adjusted to be large through a large control input.
