Our 11th podcast explores automobile suspension systems. In this episode we look at why and how wheels have been attached to the vehicle and the various challenges the suspension engineers overcame in order to balance the comfort and performance. General Motors created ground-breaking developments in the 1930s that we still benefit from today and as always there are a few surprises such as the very common system that was first introduced on the low-volume 1970 Mercedes Benz C111 sports car.
