Abstract

A suspension device for an electric vehicle prevents change in pitching behavior of the vehicle during regenerative and friction braking. The suspension device includes a front suspension arm that swings in a vehicle up-down direction with reference to a front wheel swinging axis; a front damper approximately perpendicular to the front wheel swinging axis in a side view; a rear suspension arm that swings in the vehicle up-down direction with reference to a rear wheel swinging axis; and a rear damper approximately perpendicular to the rear wheel swinging axis in a side view. The front wheel swinging axis and a first imaginary line perpendicular to a direction of extension of the front damper are approximately parallel to each other. The rear wheel swinging axis and a second imaginary line perpendicular to a direction of extension of the rear damper are approximately parallel to each other in a side view.
