Abstract

A vehicle rear structure includes: a rear sideframe disposed on either side in a rear of a vehicle body; and a rear subframe disposed under the rear sideframe, wherein a rear end of the rear subframe is disposed at the same position in the longitudinal direction as, or at a position posterior to, a rear end of the rear sideframe. The vehicle rear structure has better performance in transmitting an impact load at a rear impact with a vehicle than ever, to further improve performance in absorbing impact energy.
