The rear side frame includes a subframe fastening portion to which the subframe is fastened, and the subframe fastening portion links the rear side frame and the floor panel.

Rear structure of vehicle body

A vehicle body rear part structure includes a rear frame and a beam member. The rear frame has: a first inner bead, a first outer bead, a second inner bead, and a second outer bead. The first inner bead and the first outer bead are formed on an inner wall and an outer wall, respectively, in a region close to the beam member. The second inner bead and the second outer bead are formed on the inner wall and the outer wall, respectively, in a region that is separated to a vehicle body frontward direction from the first beads. The first outer bead is formed to have a higher fragility than the first inner bead.

Vehicle body rear part structure

A vehicle body rear portion includes a side sill, a rear side frame, a cross member, a side door, a trailing arm, an arm attachment bracket, and a bracket reinforcement member. The side door includes a door beam disposed at a position overlapping an outer side of the side sill in a vehicle width direction. The trailing arm has a front end portion that is swingably supported by a front region of a rear side frame via a mounting member. The bracket reinforcement member has an outer end portion in the vehicle width direction that is directly or indirectly coupled to an internal angle portion above the side sill, and an inner end portion in the vehicle width direction that is directly or indirectly coupled to an outer end portion of the cross member in the vehicle width direction.

Vehicle body rear structure

A vehicle body rear part includes a side sill, a rear side frame, a cross member, a trailing arm, an arm attachment bracket, and a close plate. In the trailing arm, a front end part is swingably supported via a mount member at a front region of the rear side frame. The arm attachment bracket is fixed into a cross section of the rear side frame and has a fixation nut with which the mount member is fastened and fixed. The bracket reinforcement member reinforces the arm attachment bracket. The close plate closes an opening on an upper side of the front region of the rear side frame.
