A vehicle battery cradle has first and second side beams. Each side beam has a first and second end. The first and second side beams are spaced from one another and positioned substantially parallel to one another. A center beam, with a first and second end, is positioned between the first and second side beams. A cross beam is secured with a first end of the first, second and center beams. The cross beam, with a first and second end, is substantially transverse to the first, second and center beams. A truss is coupled with the cross beam. The truss stabilizes the cradle. The second ends of the first and second side beams include a mechanism to secure the cradle with the vehicle body. The first and second ends of the cross beam include a mechanism to secure the cradle with the vehicle.
