This study examines the smoothness of an intelligent chassis for electric vehicles, analyzes the chassis structure and configuration, and considers the impacts of the primary energy subsystem, electric drive subsystem, and auxiliary control subsystem on smoothness. The influence of suspension parameters on smoothness is examined, highlighting the significance of elastic element stiffness and the shock absorber damping ratio. Dynamic models of quarter- and half-car suspension systems, as well as a comprehensive nine-degree-of-freedom vehicle model, are developed to examine the vibration characteristics under varying road conditions. The chassis suspension dynamic model is developed, simulated, and analyzed using ADAMS/View software 2024. The suspension damping value is optimized with the ADAMS/PostProcessor tool, revealing that smoothness can be enhanced by judiciously decreasing the damping value. The article discusses the human body’s reaction to vibration and assessment metrics, referencing worldwide standards to establish a foundation for evaluation. The study offers theoretical backing for the design and optimization of an intelligent chassis, hence advancing the technological development of electric vehicles.
