A subframe (91) for supporting a suspension apparatus is fastened to an insertion member (93) embedded in a core material (43) of an inclined wall (37) of a dash panel (21). The core material (43) is configured from a corrugated panel having multiple recessed sections (43a) extending in the front-rear direction. One vertex (a) of the insertion member (93) which forms a triangular shape in a planar view is oriented towards the inside or outside in the vehicle width direction. Two edges (B, C) located either side of the vertex (a) are in contact with the core material (43). As a result, when a load is inputted from the suspension apparatus to the subframe (91) in the vehicle width direction, the load is dispersed from the two edges (B, C) located either side of the one vertex (a) of the insertion member (93) to the core material (43) of the inclined wall (37) of the dash panel (21), and absorbed, thereby improving support rigidity of the subframe (91) with respect to the inclined wall (37) of the dash panel (21), without complicating the structure of the insertion member (93).
