Abstract
The disclosure provides a vehicle body lower structure. The vehicle body lower structure includes: a deflector, disposed on a vehicle body and movable between a stowed position covering a lower part of the vehicle body and a deployed position protruding downward; and a shaft member, extending in a vehicle left-right direction and rotatably connecting a front end of the deflector to the vehicle body. The deflector is maintained in the deployed position protruding downward by its own weight, and receiving an impact load from below, the deflector moves from the deployed position to the stowed position.
