The article considers new developments in suspension design for heavy goods vehicles and commercial vehicles, with reference both to normal road conditions and to operation in difficult conditions. The various types of suspension are introduced and particular attention is given to pneumatic suspension systems, which are becoming increasingly common not only for rear axles but also for other axles on goods vehicles. Various designs of this type of suspension are described, including electronically controlled systems.
