A suspension for a motor vehicle has a link structure and a spring interposed between the link structure and a vehicle frame. The link structure comprises a trailing arm extending substantially longitudinally of the vehicle frame and having a front end pivotally coupled to the vehicle frame and a rear end supporting a wheel, upper and lower arms extending substantially transversely of the vehicle frame and each having one end pivotally coupled to the vehicle frame and an opposite end pivotally coupled to the trailing arm in the vicinity of a rear end thereof, and a compensation link having one end pivotally coupled to the vehicle frame and an opposite end pivotally coupled to the trailing arm. The suspension is relatively lightweight, inexpensive to construct, and has excellent performance.
