Abstract: A rear vehicle-body structure for increasing support rigidity for a rear suspension and consequently increase steering stability. The rear vehicle-body structure includes a first frame extending to connect a rear end lower portion of a combined body composed of a side sill and a pillar and a lower arm front support portion of a rear side housing, and having therein a closed cross-sectional space; a second frame extending to connect a rear end lower portion of a floor tunnel located at a vehicle-width-direction center portion of a vehicle-body bottom portion and bulging toward a vehicle upper side in a vehicle front-rear direction and the lower arm front support portion and having therein a closed cross-sectional space; and a third frame extending to connect a rear end upper portion of the floor tunnel and the lower arm front support portion, and having therein a closed cross-sectional space.

Abstract: Upper frames and a lower frame that connect a rear end of a coupled body composed of a side sill and a rear pillar and a rear side housing to each other are spaced apart in a vehicle up-down direction. An inclined angle at which a lower frame is inclined to be closer to a vehicle inner side toward a vehicle rear side is larger than inclined angles at which the upper frames are inclined to be closer to the vehicle inner side toward the rear side. A lower joined portion to which a rear end of the lower frame is joined is on a vehicle-width-direction inner side with respect to an upper joined portion in the rear side housing, which is composed of a single member including at least the lower frame rear-end joined portion, and the first and second upper frame rear-end joined portions, and extending therebetween.

Abstract: A rear vehicle-body structure of a vehicle capable of increasing the support rigidity of a rear suspension and the transmission efficiency of a rear-end collision load to the vehicle front side. A side sill has an upper closed cross-section portion. The upper closed cross-section portion includes a closed cross-sectional space extending in the vehicle front-rear direction. A linear connecting frame connecting a rear end of the upper closed cross-section portion to a rear side housing is between the rear end of the upper closed cross-section portion and the rear side housing. The connecting frame is inclined to be closer to a vehicle lower side as the connecting frame approaches the vehicle front side. The upper closed cross-section portion is inclined to be closer to an upper side as the upper closed cross-section portion approaches a vehicle rear side to correspond to an inclination angle of the connecting frame.
