The work was solved using experimental methods using the AHS test bench. The main goal of the work was to assess the vehicle suspension system using acceleration sensors and pressures between the wheel and the road using shock absorber test benches using the EUSAMA and CAP methodology. The results of the work demonstrated the possibilities of using the measurement of acceleration values in selected places in the vehicle. The obtained results were also verified for the possibilities of further development in the area of reducing the dynamic load when driving a passenger car on the road. ER
