A variable rear wheel toe angle control system for a vehicle that can appropriately control a rear wheel toe angle without detecting a turning movement of the vehicle. Because the rear wheel toe angle can be appropriately controlled according to acceleration/deceleration of the vehicle, the turning and straight traveling performance of the vehicle can be improved. In particular, if the acceleration is computed from an output of an accelerator pedal sensor and/or an output of the brake pedal sensor, the response delay is minimized, and a favorable handling of the vehicle can be achieved. Also, the variable toe angle control may be used for favorably compensating for the change in the toe angle owing to the tendency of the vehicle to nose lift in acceleration and nose dive in deceleration caused by geometry of a rear suspension system, thereby enhancing freedom in design of the rear suspension system.
