Abstract
A vehicle door is provided having an outer panel reinforced by a panel reinforcement and which is configured to generate low-frequency sound dominantly at the time of closing the door. The door has an outer panel openably/closably attached to a vehicle body by a front hinge; and a panel reinforcement extending in a vehicle front-rear direction on an inner side of the outer panel. The outer panel and the panel reinforcement are fixed by plural adhesion sections. The number of the adhesion sections in an upper area of the outer panel is larger than the number of the adhesion sections in a lower area of the outer panel. The number of the adhesion sections provided in a front lower area near the front hinge in the lower area is larger than the number of adhesion sections in a rear lower area away from the front hinge in the lower area.
