A reinforcing plate (62) is provided between an inner central portion that structures a portion of a connecting member (38) and a rear end portion of a dash cross-member (20). The reinforcing plate (62) is a wrought member and is joined (at a join portion (63)) to both the inner central portion and a rear wall portion of the dash cross-member (20) via joining members (51). Because the wrought member has high tensile strength, when the reinforcing plate (62) is provided at the join portion (63) of the connecting member, a tensile load acting on the join portion (63) may be borne by the reinforcing plate (62), and breakage of the connecting member may be suppressed. Therefore, an impact load transmitted from a front side member through the connecting member may be transmitted to the dash cross-member (20) and rockers (12).
