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 being swingably connected to the suspension support member and the outer end of each of the lateral link being connected to a wheel carrier for carrying the wheel. The system further comprises elastic device mounted between a vehicle body and the suspension support member, and the elastic device having a non-linear load-deformation property so as to obtain both a desirable controllability under a high driving force condition and a stable drivability under a low driving force condition.
