Abstract
A structure of a tail gate is formed by bonding peripheral edge portions of an inner panel and an outer panel to each other, and covering a rear portion of a vehicle body so the tail gate is able to freely open and close. A cover is arranged in an inner side of the inner panel, and a lock apparatus is provided with a latch capable of engaging with a striker fixed to a vehicle body. The lock apparatus is disposed between the inner panel and the cover.
