Compared to passive and semi‐active suspensions, active suspensions have the capacity to overcome the tradeoff design of vehicle ride comfort and handling performance. In this paper, a new control system with modified spherical simplex UKF (SSUKF) observer and sliding mode force tracker is proposed for electrohydraulic active suspensions. The estimated states obtained from the SSUKF observer are used to derive the mode energy of body motion and design the target demanded forces for suspension actuators. A sliding mode controller is presented to drive electrohydraulic actuators to track the demanded forces. Based on a robust H∞ control method, a new control strategy depending on body mode energy is proposed to restrict body motion. The performance comparisons between passive and active suspensions under three typical excitations are presented, and the obtained results indicate that the proposed control system can significantly depress body motion and decrease the mode energy to improve ride comfort and also effectively enhance the road hold abilities.
