Ride Comfort and NVH

  • Chapter
Chassis Handbook

Abstract

Ride comfort is defined as the overall comfort and well-being of the vehicle’s occupants during vehicle travel. The main sources of discomfort are oscillations which reach the vehicle’s passenger compartment and cause noise, vibration, or both. Since the sources of these oscillations (the roadway, chassis, and powertrain) are outside of the passenger compartment, specially-designed components can be used to hinder the transmission and penetration of disturbances into the passenger compartment.
