ABSTRACT:
A rear suspension system includes an axle carrier rotatably carrying the road wheel. The axle carrier is connected to the vehicle body via a front lateral link, a rear lateral link, a radius rod and a vertical strut. The front lateral link is shorter than the rear lateral link and has an outboard end pivotably mounted via an elastic bush on the axle carrier at a front pivot portion thereof. The outboard end of the front lateral link is disposed inboard of an outboard end of the rear lateral link. With this arrangement, a toe angle of the outer rear wheel is varied to a toe-in side when the vehicle makes a turn. Thus, the vehicle exhibits a compliance understeer characteristic while making a turn.
