In a structure for mounting a battery pack on a vehicle, since a recess portion, into which a cross member is fitted, is formed on an upper face of a battery case so as to extend in a vehicle width direction, it is possible to mount the battery pack on a vehicle body without interfering with the cross member, and it is unnecessary to raise the position of the cross member or form a cutout in the cross member, thereby enabling a balance to be achieved between the capacity of a vehicle compartment and the strength of the cross member while ensuring a sufficient minimum ground clearance for the battery pack and preventing a battery from becoming wet. Furthermore, since the recess portion is formed on the upper face of the battery case, a cooling passage disposed beneath the battery is not narrowed, thus ensuring the battery cooling performance.
