631 AbstractCongested roads demand for more compact vehicle in many underdeveloped countries like Nepal. Three wheeled vehicle can be a solution since, they offer great directional control, simple manufacturing and less fuel consumption but the most critical instability associated with such vehicles is the possibility of roll over during cornering. In this paper, tilt control suspension positioning is included which increases the critical cornering speed and reduces the chances of roll over by increasing track width of the vehicle. Similarly the feasibility test using BC test shows that it is very much feasible in Nepal.
