STRUCTURE FOR PROTECTING BATTERY FOR VEHICLE AND VEHICLE INCLUDING THE SAME

A structure for protecting a battery for a vehicle can include a pair of side sills each extending in a longitudinal direction of a vehicle body, and a floor assembly coupled between the pair of side sills. The floor assembly can include a panel that forms a space for mounting a first battery, a first cross member coupled to the panel and having both ends coupled to the pair of side sills in a first direction, and a second cross member having both ends coupled to the pair of side sills in a second direction and spaced apart from the first cross member with the space for mounting the first battery therebetween.
