There is multi-link suspension and it can be controlled by either a coil spring and a shock absorber or by a coil over strut type shock assembly (Macpherson Strut). The advantage of the multi-link is the geometry of the wheel assembly it controls. There is also a stadard type suspension that entails upper and lower control arms with coil and shock absorber to control the ride rate. and a straight axle suspension, usually used on larger vehicles and gives an undesirable ride in the comfort dept There is also IRS (independent rear suspension) and it uses struts mainly.
