A first link mechanism of a suspension is provided at a rear end portion
of a vehicle for connecting a drive wheel to a vehicle body, so that the
drive wheel performs vertical movements relative to the vehicle body via
the first link mechanism. In addition, a shock absorber is attached to a
lower arm of the first link mechanism for resiliently supporting the
drive wheel relative to the vehicle body. Furthermore, a second link
mechanism is provided on the upper arm and the lower arm of the first
link mechanism which performs symmetrically vertical movements relative
to the vertical movements of the first link mechanism, and a motor is
integrally attached to the second link mechanism, whereby inertia energy
resulting from the vertical movements of the drive wheel and inertia
energy resulting from the vertical movements of the motor are made to be
offset against each other.
