A double-wishbone type front suspension structure of an automotive vehicle, comprising:

• an upper arm pivotally supported at a vehicle-body side via front-and-rear pivotal portions thereof;
• a lower arm pivotally supported at the vehicle-body side via front-and-rear pivotal portions thereof;
• and
• a damper unit provided between a vehicle body and the lower arm,
• wherein resilient bushes are provided at the respective front-and-rear pivotal portions of said upper arm and said lower arm, respective axial lines of said resilient bushes of the front-and-rear pivotal portions of the lower arm are provided to coaxially extend in a longitudinal direction, a knuckle-side pivotal portion of the upper arm, via which a knuckle member is pivotally supported at the upper arm, is provided in back of a knuckle-side pivotal portion of the lower arm, via which the knuckle member is pivotally supported at the lower arm, the upper arm is supported at a front side frame such that respective axial lines of said resilient bushes of the front-and-rear pivotal portions of the upper arm coaxially extend in the longitudinal direction, in parallel to said respective axial lines of the resilient bushes of the front-and-rear pivotal portions of the lower arm in a plan view, and extends obliquely rearward and downward in a side view, and a lower end portion of said damper unit is connected to the lower arm such that the damper unit is positioned perpendicularly to the axial lines of the resilient bushes of the front-and-rear pivotal portions of the lower arm and an upper end portion of said damper unit is pivotally supported at the vehicle body via a rotational axis which extends in the longitudinal direction in parallel to the axial lines of the resilient bushes of the front-and-rear pivotal portions of the lower arm.
