A system and method of stabilizing a vehicle are disclosed. In accordance with one aspect, a self-stabilizing vehicle having an articulated frame may generally comprise: a first frame portion coupled to one or more wheels; an second frame portion to support a load of the vehicle; a hinge assembly operably coupling the first frame portion and the second frame portion; and a control unit to drive the hinge assembly causing the second frame portion to rotate (relative to the first frame portion) about one or more hinge axes as a function of inertial data and speed data, and optionally steering control input signals. In some two-wheeled applications, both wheels are steerable; additionally, both wheels may be driven. Alternative vehicles are disclosed having one wheel and three wheels.
