Abstract

A battery mounting structure having an enhanced rigidity against an impact load applied from the side is provided. Battery modules are juxtaposed to form arrays of the battery pack in a battery pack and the battery pack is disposed between the frame members. A load transmission member is disposed in a clearance between the battery modules adjacent to each other in a width direction of the vehicle. The load transmission member is crushed in the width direction by an impact load applied from the side of the vehicle to absorb collision energy.
