A vehicle body structure with a floor panel having rigidity to withstand an impact energy at an offset collision of the vehicle is provided.

The beads are formed in the floor panel such that they extend obliquely rearward from left and right floor frame members toward the transversal center and are aligned longitudinally of the vehicle body.
