ABSTRACT:
A rear suspension system comprising a rear differential gear mechanism for transmitting a driving force to rear wheels through rear axles, a suspension support member for supporting the rear differential gear mechanism, a pair of front lateral links extending horizontally and transversely, and a pair of rear lateral links extending horizontally and transversely at rear positions of the front lateral links respectively. The inner end of each of the lateral links is swingably connected to the suspension support member, and the outer end of each of the lateral link is connected to a wheel carrier for carrying the wheel. The suspension system further comprises elastic devices mounted between a vehicle body and the suspension support member. The elastic devices have respective load-deformation properties for upward and downward deformations so as to obtain both stable drivability in a braked turning operation and running safety in a driven turning operation.
