Abstract
[Object] To improve load resistance performance in response to collision. [Solution] An end structure of a vehicle according to the present invention includes: a beamthat extends in a vehicle width direction; and a connecting structurethat connects the beamto a vehicle body frame. In a cross-sectional view perpendicular to the vehicle width direction, the beamincludes a first top surface partand a first bottom surface partwhich face each other, a first side surface partthat connects one ends of the first top surface partand the first bottom surface part, and first flange partsthat are formed to protrude vertically outwardly at the other ends of the first top surface partand the first bottom surface part. The beamis fixed to the connecting structureby at least one of bonding of a protrusionthat is provided in the connecting structureand is arranged to protrude inside the beamto the first top surface partand the first bottom surface partand bonding of a beam attachment member provided in the connecting structureto the first flange parts
