Abstract

A rear body structure of a vehicle including right and left rear suspension towers, each jutting upward and sideways into a compartment so as to form a housing for supporting a rear suspension, has a gusset panel which extends transversely in the compartment between the rear suspension towers and is secured to a floor and the right and left rear suspension towers, a first panel and a second panel secured, respectively, to the right and left suspension towers from the front and the back and the gusset panel. These gusset panel and the first and second panels extend transversely in the compartment between the right and left rear suspension towers so as to provide a closed cross sectional hollow structure between and above the right and left rear suspension towers.
