PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a luggage compartment opening having a wide lower part that is easy to use and having a design in which an intermediate part in a longitudinal direction is constricted and tightened in a vehicle width direction, and to ensure mountability of a damper.SOLUTION: A rear pillar outer panel 51 (a pillar outer 51) is provided on a vehicle outer side of a rear pillar 5 forming a side edge 1s of a luggage compartment opening 1 of a vehicle. A damper 8 connected to the rear pillar 5 and a lift gate 2 is provided at the side edge 1s of the luggage compartment opening 1. An inner frame 51i of the pillar outer 51 and the damper 8 extend outward and rearward in a vehicle width direction when closing the lift gate 2. An outer frame 51o on the outer side of the pillar outer 51 in the vehicle width direction extends outward and forward of the inner frame 51i in the vehicle width direction from a damper intermediate position 8M of the pillar outer 51 which corresponds to a longitudinal intermediate part of the damper 8. A widening part 54W is provided on the vehicle front side of the damper intermediate position 8M of the pillar outer 51. In the pillar outer 51, a damper fitting part 9 is formed in the widening part 54W, and a rear part behind the damper intermediate position 8M bulges outward and downward in the vehicle width direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
【課題】下部が広く使い易く、前後方向の中間部が車幅方向にくびれて引き締まったデザインを有する荷室開口を設けることができるとともにダンパの取り付け性を確保すること。【解決手段】車両の荷室開口1の側縁1sを形成するリヤピラー5の車両外側にリヤピラーアウタパネル51(ピラーアウタ51)を備え、荷室開口1の側縁1sに、リヤピラー5とリフトゲート2とに連結されたダンパ8を備え、リフトゲート8閉時においてピラーアウタ51の内枠51iとダンパ8が車幅方向外側後方に延設され、ピラーアウタ51の車幅方向外側の外枠51oがダンパ8の長手方向中間部に対応するピラーアウタ51のダンパ中間位置8Mから内枠51iに対して車幅方向外側前方に延設されており、ピラーアウタ51のダンパ中間位置8Mよりも車両前方に拡幅部54Wが設けられ、ピラーアウタ51は拡幅部54Wにダンパ取付部9が形成されると共にダンパ中間位置8Mから後方の後部が車幅方向外側且つ下方に膨出される構成とした。【選択図】図1
