Abstract
A coupled torsion beam axle apparatus of a vehicle includes: a left torsion bar and a right torsion bar arranged in an internal space of the torsion beam so to be separated from each other in a horizontal direction of a torsion beam. Torsion stiffness of the torsion beam is tuned by replacing the left torsion bar and the right torsion bar, and particularly, warping stiffness is tuned by changing a position where the left torsion bar is coupled to the torsion beam and a position where the right torsion bar is coupled to the torsion beam.
