Suspension systems and grounds maintenance vehicles incorporating the same are disclosed. The suspension system may include biasing elements or springs that may be adjusted to vary the preload and thus change the spring and dampening characteristics of the suspension system. In some embodiments, the system may include an adjustment mechanism that permits simultaneous adjustment of two springs via a single action. In other embodiments, features adapted to assist an operator with mounting/dismounting the vehicle are disclosed.

The Kinetic Kar will have a large high pressure chamber filled with hydraulic fluid pressured up to 20 ton for the initial motion of the car. The pressure harvested by means of pumps, pistons, valves, and electrical gadget will be too high for the high pressure chamber. It is estimated that the car will move from zero to 20 miles in a matter of 2 seconds and run at up to 150 miles per hour for a mile before pressure tank is depleted totally. It will only take 3-4 seconds for pressure reservoir to replenish.
