An air spring includes a first body; a first piston sealed against a first wall of the first body; a cup having a second wall; and a second piston, wherein the cup and the second piston are configured such that: in an extended position, the second piston does not seal against the second wall, in an intermediate position, the second piston seals against the second wall, and as the first piston moves from the intermediate position to a compressed position, a spring rate of the air spring will increase at a higher rate than if the second piston were not sealed against the second wall.
