ABSTRACT:
Safety of a vehicle is improved by employing a rear side member in a generally straight line shape in parallel with a side sill. Connecting and combining overlapped areas between the side sill and the rear side member with multiple closed cross-section structures provides even stronger support against an impact delivered from behind a vehicle. Furthermore, the structure effectively disperses the delivered impact.
