why not the LS2LS7? @ Sep 21st 2007 7:19PM
GM started working on stuff like this (linear actuator suspension) in the 80s.
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. Ferrari seems to agree.

No, they didn't.
The had to fit longitudinal torsion bars, and keep the dampers, while fiting the big actuator.
There was a cutaway drawing in motortrend a long way back. This was a hack to show off cool Bose tech.
