Abstract: A wheel suspension for a powered front axle of a motor vehicle comprises a stabilizer held at the body which, via a joint, is connected with a suspension gear linkage and, via another joint, is connected with a wheel carrier. The suspension linkage consists of an arm which is constructed in the shape of a semicircle, is adjusted in longitudinal direction of the vehicle and the one joint of which, on the wheel carrier side, is arranged above an axis of rotation of the wheel, in an axis of inclination formed by an upper spring strut support bearing and a lower transverse link bearing. The arm, between the two joints, forms a semicircular clearance for a transversely extending wheel drive shaft which extends at a distance from the arm in vertical and longitudinal direction.

Abstract: For improving the load-change behavior of a motor vehicle when driving through a curve, the motor vehicle is provided with a lockable differential continuously activatable in its locking action. The activation of the locking differential takes place in the first instance in two steps dependent on power output, whereby a velocity-dependent characteristic may be superimposed additionally on this power output-dependent control.
