The upper arm and the lower arm are swingably connected with the wheel support part and a body of a vehicle at respective ends thereof. The suspension also includes a load transmitting part and at least one bushing. The load transmitting part transmits the vertical load of the vehicle to the lower arm or the upper arm. A bushing arrangement connects the upper arm or the lower arm to the body and has different elastic properties in accordance with directions of force exerted on the bushing arrangement to control the camber of the wheel while maintaining a comfortable ride.
