If you replace springs with linear motors (as they seem to have), do you realize how much power it will take to hold up your car against gravity? LOTS. And that power comes right out of your gas tank.

I think GMs ferrofluid suspension stuff is a lot more promising.

When I first read about the Bose suspension in Motor Trend or Road & Track 5-10 years ago, they said the people from Bose told them, "Watch how close we can stop to this plank."
