Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a body rear part structure of an automobile, capable of improving water-tightness and repairing performance by securing load loading performance and vehicle body rigidity and reducing the weight and costs. SOLUTION: A rear cross member 5 is connected to the rear end of a rear side member 1 and offset-arranged on the rear part and above the rear side member 1, and a shock absorbing member 27 adjacent to the rear end in the vehicle longitudinal direction and extending to the rear part is connected to the rear end of the rear side member 1. The shock absorbing member 21 and the rear cross member 5 above it are connected to each other to sufficiently secure rigidity in relation to traveling input and a rear side collision of the vehicle. Shock input in the rear side collision of the vehicle can be transmitted to the rear side member 1 by the shock absorbing member 27, shock input can be absorbed by the shock absorbing member 27, and the influence of shock input to a large-sized outer plate panel such as a rear panel 6 for constituting the rear cross member 5 can be reduced.
