A vehicle body rear structure includes a pair of rear side members extending in a vehicle-body front-rear direction, a suspension member including a pair of side beams and a cross beam, and a brace linked to the cross beam via a second rubber bushing and linked to each of the rear side members. The side beams extend in the vehicle-body front-rear direction and are each linked to a corresponding one of the rear side members via a first rubber bushing. The cross beam is linked to each of the side beams.

A method of aligning a first component and a second component with elastic averaging includes offsetting a first part and a second part of the first component and creating a shut-off slot between the first part and the second part of the first component by offsetting the first part and the second part. The shut-off slot has a slot vector that is not parallel to a main die vector.

A vehicle front portion structure that includes: a suspension member that is provided further toward a vehicle front side than a battery accommodating portion, and that has a pair of side rails that are disposed with an interval therebetween in a vehicle transverse direction and that extend in a vehicle longitudinal direction; and connecting members that connect rear portions of the side rails and a front portion of the battery accommodating portion, and at which deforming portions that, due to input of collision load to the side rails from a vehicle front side, deform such that the rear portions of the side rails move toward a vehicle lower side with respect to the front portion of the battery accommodating portion are formed, the connecting members being formed by members having higher ductility than the side rails.

A method for producing a seal between two roof frame elements for a vehicle roof is described and having the steps of providing the two roof frame elements in such a manner that an overlap region is formed, wherein at least one gap is formed in the overlap region; mechanically supported introduction of a hardening sealing material into the gap by an applicator device in such a manner that the sealing material flows into the gap and subsequently hardens in order to form a gap seal. Arrangements resulting from the described methods is also disclosed.
