Abstract: A side panel structure (20), including a side outer panel (21) provided on the vehicle exterior side, and a side inner panel (22) provided on the vehicle interior (12) side. The side outer panel (21) and the side inner panel (22) form, as a closed cross-section structure, a peripheral edge section forming door openings (35, 36). The side outer panel (21) comprises an inner frame (26) formed from a high-strength steel sheet having a high tensile strength, and an outer frame (27) provided to the outer periphery section (26a) of the inner frame (26). The outer frame (27) is formed from a low-strength steel sheet having a low tensile strength.

Abstract: Left and right roof rails for supporting a roof panel include left and right inner rails; and left and right outer panels located on the outsides of the left and right inner rails in the width direction of the vehicle. Each of the outer panels is formed in a stepped shape and includes a stepped section at an intermediate stage and an upper outer flange at a lower stage. The upper outer flanges are joined to the upper surfaces of the associated inner rail. The left and right ends of the roof panel are joined to the stepped surfaces of the stepped sections by adhesion sections and temporarily securing sections. The temporarily securing sections are weld portions that provide temporary affixation until the adhesion sections can exhibit an adhesion force, and the temporarily securing sections are covered with filling agent layers that are filled into the stepped sections.
