A suspension system for a motor vehicle having a body, the system including at least a pair of suspensions each comprising a shock absorber having an upper end adapted to be mounted on the body of the motor vehicle, a knuckle operatively connected to the shock absorber for supporting a wheel thereon, a radius arm adapted to be mounted at one end on the body and supporting at a distal end thereof the knuckle, a torsion bar spring having one end adapted to be fixed to the body and a twistable and flexible distal end and adapted to extend in the fore-and-aft direction of the motor vehicle, and a resilient lower arm having one end fixed to the distal end of the torsion bar spring and the other end fastened to the distal end of the radius arm, the lower arm being flexible in the fore-and-aft direction of the motor vehicle and rigid in the vertical direction thereof. The suspension system of the present invention enables the torsion bars to function effectively.
