PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a side structure of a vehicle capable of shortening a free-running distance at the time of a side collision. SOLUTION: A projection bead 160 is set in an extension part 110C of a door inner 110, and the projection bead 160 substantially forms the extension part 110C of the door inner 110. An engagement bracket 142 is fitted to the extension part 110C, and an inclined surface 144 faces the opposite surface 150 of a body pillar 106. One part of a load in a side collision is applied to the engagement bracket 142 from an impact beam 116 through an impact beam extension 118 so as to push the engagement bracket 142 to the opposite surface 150. Since the engagement bracket 142 is fitted to the extension part 110C, the inclined surface 144 is arranged close to the opposite surface 150, and a running distance till the inclined surface 144 touches the opposite surface 150, namely a free-running distance, is shortened.
