A rear wheel suspension including first and second suspension devices carrying a right and left, respectively, rear wheel rotating in a wheel plane forming a toe angle with respect to a longitudinal axis and a camber angle with respect to a vertical axis. A transversal beam connects the first and the second suspension device. Each suspension device includes a wheel spindle housing, defining a wheel center, and a leading link and a trailing link connected to the vehicle body. The transversal beam permits bending for vertical loads to provide the suspension devices a deflection to adjust the toe and camber angles such that the changes of the camber angles when the wheel planes converge towards an upper point above the wheel center connect to a controlled adjustment of the toe angles such that the wheel planes converge directionally towards a rear point located rearwards of the wheel center.
