ABSTRACT:
A vehicle body mounting configuration is obtained which can properly mount an exhaust system heat exchanger on a vehicle body. The configuration includes an exhaust system heat exchanger which extends in a vehicle front-rear direction, a floor tunnel which opens downwards in a vehicle vertical direction, a body cross member which bridges wall portions of the floor tunnel, and a support portion which supports in a suspending fashion the exhaust system heat exchanger relative to the body cross member. The body cross member overlaps at an upper side in the vehicle vertical direction relative to a partition wall pipe which lies outside of a range where a cooling medium flow path is placed in a longitudinal direction, and the support portion is fixed, respectively, to the exhaust gas exhaust portion of the partition wall pipe and the body cross member.
