PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicle lower body structure which enables the operation stability to be improved by enhancing the rigidity of a support bracket against force input in a vehicle width direction during steering.SOLUTION: In a vehicle lower body structure, when front end parts of trailing arms 12 are swingably supported by support brackets 3 attached to left and right rear side members 2, the left and right support brackets 3 are connected by a connection bar 18 extending in a substantially linear shape in a vehicle width direction and the connection bar 18 is disposed so as to pass through an area below a fuel tank 9.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】操舵時の車幅方向入力に対する支持ブラケットの剛性を高めることにより、操縦安定性を向上できる自動車の下部車体構造を提供する。【解決手段】左，右のリヤサイドメンバ２に取り付けられた支持ブラケット３により、トレーリングアーム１２の前端部を揺動可能に支持する場合に、左，右の支持ブラケット３を車幅方向に略直線状に延びる連結バー１８により連結し、該連結バー１８を燃料タンク９の下方を通るように配置する。【選択図】図１
