It turns out some people have been working on it, it just hasn't made it to the mass market. Hmmm. I smell a conspiracy here.

Active Suspension
Going around a corner on a two lane blacktop highway, I got to thinking about suspension and roll and thought why don't we have active suspension that will tilt a car into the corner? I mean we know how to build all kinds of electronic and mechanical gizmos, active suspension shouldn't be that difficult. Shoot, I read an article in a car magazine some umpteen years ago (umpteen decades you mean, old man) about how Lotus had developed an active suspension to help with rough roads. The rear suspension on the car was controlled to follow the lead of whatever bumps the front wheels encountered. It made it possible to travel a rough road at a much higher rate of speed. And that was the last I heard of it.

There was a fully active suspension on the '90 Infiniti Q45a. It worked beautifully while it worked; God help you when it failed.

It's a conspiracy spelled MONEY. To put that in a car = costs up, profit down.
