Abstract
The disclosure provides a vehicle body lower structure, which may improve aerodynamic performance and inhibit the airflow guiding plate from being over-expanded or detached. The vehicle body lower structure includes an airflow guiding plate that is arranged on the vehicle body of a vehicle and is movable between a receiving position covering the lower part of the vehicle body and a deploying position protruding downward. The vehicle body lower structure further includes: a hook member, which is provided on the upper surface of the airflow guiding plate. When the airflow guiding plate is in the deploying position, the hook member is locked onto the buckle part of the vehicle body. When the airflow guiding plate is located at the receiving position, the hook member is separated from the buckle part of the vehicle body.
