Abstract
An upper body structure of a vehicle includes a front header extending in a transverse direction of the vehicle. The front header is formed as a generally boxed channel by an upper header frame and a U-channel shaped lower header frame. A side rail extends in a lengthwise direction of the vehicle and has upper and lower rail frames connected so as to form a generally boxed channel. The U-channel shaped lower header frame and the upper rail frame are interconnected by a generally U-channel shaped rigid reinforcement structure.
