ABSTRACT:
A double wishbone rear suspension comprises upper and lower control arms of the A-shaped frame type. The pivot ends of the lower control arm pivot about axes which are coaxial and constitute part of a straight line (L.sub.1). The straight line (L.sub.1) extends forwardly and laterally outwardly and at the same time forwardly and upwardly with respect to the vehicle body. The pivot ends of the upper control arm pivot about axes which are coaxial and constitute part of a straight line (L.sub.3). The straight line (L.sub.3) is parallel with a longitudinal axis of a vehicle body and located on a horizontal plane. The oscillatory ends of the upper and lower control arms are connected via first and second ball joints to an axle housing. The first ball joint is located rearward of the second ball joint and adjacent and adjacently inward of an upper end portion of a tire of a rear wheel. A rear one of the pivot ends of the lower control arm is located substantially on a straight line extending between the second ball joints for the left and right lower control arms.
