Abstract
An effective vehicle attitude control method in which the abrupt change of the vehicle attitude due to the acceleration slip control can be quickly controlled. When the slippage of a drive wheel is determined to be greater than a predetermined value, the drive force of the drive wheel is controlled and, at the same time, the suspension characteristic is altered to a harder state. For preferentially keeping maneuverability and riding comfort, the altered suspension characteristic may be restored to the original state when a preset time period has passed.
