Claim:
1. A suspension system comprising: a force generation mechanism disposed between a vehicle body side and a wheel side of a vehicle, and capable of generating a force in upward and downward directions and adjusting the force to be generated; and a controller configured to calculate and control the force to be generated by the force generation mechanism based on vehicle body behavior information, wherein the controller includes a geometry force calculation unit configured to calculate a force which contains the component of a force in upward and downward directions and which is applied between the vehicle body and the wheel and is generated according to the suspension geometry of the suspension system due to a horizontal force applied to each wheel, and wherein the controller determines the force to be generated by the force to be generated by the force generation mechanism that is calculated based on the vehicle body behavior information being amended by the geometry force calculation unit.
