To reinforce a front sub-frame in such a manner that the front sub-frame having a trapezoidal shape formed by a cross member and left and right side members extending to one side is not deformed to a rhombus shape at the one side, a front sub-frame structure includes: a rear cross member (74) coupling arm supporting parts (71, 71) supported on left and right side members (6, 6); tilt members (75) coupling left and right intermediate portions of the rear cross member (74) to rear vehicle attachment parts (M3) of the side members (6); a brace (80) coupling the left and right arm supporting parts (71, 71) to the rear vehicle attachment parts (M3); and intermediate coupling parts (91) coupling the brace (80) to intermediate portions of the tilt members (75).

A vehicle structure includes a vehicle frame and a push arm. The vehicle frame includes surfaces that define an intersection of a first side member and a first cross-member. The surfaces extend from the first side member to the first cross-member with an upper surface of a mid-section of the first cross-member being vertically spaced apart from an upper surface of the first side member. The push arm is coupled to the vehicle frame proximate the intersection. A rear surface of the push arm faces and is adjacent to a front area of the intersection. A main body of the push arm extends forward and laterally outboard from the rear surface such that the front surface is located laterally outboard of the first side member.

A front suspension structure has a front portion on a first side member of a vehicle frame and a rear portion on the first side member rearward of the front portion. A front wheel is supported by a wheel support structure that is pivotally mounted to a front suspension structure of the first side member. A stop structure is installed to the first side member at the rear portion of the front suspension structure. The stop structure extends in an outboard direction of the first side member. The stop structure has a stop surface that defines an angle relative to the vehicle longitudinal direction between 110 and 130 degrees. In response to an impact event to a front area of the front wheel, the front wheel pivots relative to the wheel support structure moving a rear area of the front wheel into contact with the stop surface.

A vehicle structure includes a frame and a push arm. The push arm is coupled to a first side member of the frame proximate an intersection of the first side member and a first cross-member. The push arm has a main body, a rear surface, and a front surface. The rear surface faces and is adjacent to the intersection. The main body extends forward and laterally in an outboard direction from the rear surface such that the front surface of the push arm is located laterally outboard of and spaced apart from a front end of the first side member of the frame. The front surface has a first section and a second section both facing forward relative to the frame. The second section is angularly offset from the first section such that the second section and the first section define an obtuse angle therebetween.

A vehicle front structure includes side rails, rail tips, and a tension member. The side rails extend longitudinally in a front portion of the vehicle on left and right sides of a central longitudinal axis of the vehicle. The rail tips have a plurality of flat walls that define a hollow polygonal body disposed about a tip axis. The rail tips have proximal and distal ends. The proximal end is fixedly coupled to a forward terminal end of the side rail inboard of an outer quarter of a total vehicle width. The rail tip extends outboard and forward such that the distal end is disposed within the outer quarter. The flat walls have a forward wall thickness that is less than a rearward wall thickness. The tension member is fixedly coupled to the distal ends and spans laterally therebetween.

In the front part of the front sub-frame (5), provided are a sub-crash can attachment part (12) and a tension rod supporting part (14); a front vehicle body attachment part (13) is provided between the two parts; the sus-cross member (73) is provided in the front vehicle body attachment part (13) and the tension rod supporting part (14); the front-side vehicle body attaching portion (13) includes a sub crash can load transmitting member (30); and the upper face portion (21) of the front vehicle body attachment part (13) and the partition wall (33) of the sub-crash can load transferring member (30) are spaced apart in the vertical direction and extend in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle.
