Abstract: A vehicle bottom structure is provided which, in the case where a vehicle is involved in an accident such as a rear-end collision, can prevent an exhaust system component reaching a high temperature from being brought into contact with a fuel tank without causing any trouble. A vehicle bottom structure according to the present invention includes a suspension member installed between a fuel tank and a muffler silencer and extending in the width direction of the vehicle, and a stopping member suspended from the bottom of the vehicle between the suspension member and the muffler silencer, the vertical position of the sopping member overlapping the vertical position of the muffler silencer. The suspension member is on a trajectory obtained by rotating the stopping member to the front side of the vehicle around the point at which the stopping member is suspended from the bottom of the vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle bumper is provided that can increase the rigidity while ensuring a superior drainage capability in the vicinity of the location where the bumper is attached to a side face member. A vehicle bumper includes a middle portion extending in vehicle width direction, two lateral portions extending from the two ends of the middle portion towards side face members (front fender panels), an upper flange protruding inward, with respect to a vehicle body, from an upper edge of the lateral portions, an attachment flange that is continuous with the upper flange near an end of the lateral portions and protruding further inside the vehicle body than the upper flange, a long groove formed by a depression in an upper face of the upper flange, at least one rib that partitions the long groove in vehicle width direction into depressions, and water drainage holes formed in the depressions.
