ABSTRACT:
A vehicle rear suspension system comprises a wheel carrying member for rotatably carrying a wheel of a vehicle, a plurality of lateral links connected to a vehicle body at inner ends and to the wheel carrying member at outer ends, a trailing arm extending rearwardly and connected to the vehicle body at its front end for pivotal movement and to the wheel carrying member at its rear end through a joint. The joint is located on a substantially straight line extending through both a front connecting point between the trailing arm and the vehicle body and a wheel center or outward of the line in the transverse direction. The joint allows a relative angular displacement between the wheel carrying member and the longitudinal member in a substantially horizontal plane so that no toe-out movement is produced in the wheel under a braking condition of the vehicle.
