1. An exhaust gas purification catalyst comprising:
a substrate; and
a catalyst coat layer formed on the substrate, the catalyst coat layer having a two-layer structure,
wherein the catalyst coat layer includes an upstream portion on an upstream side and a downstream portion on a downstream side in an exhaust gas flow direction, and a part or all of the upstream portion is formed on a part of the downstream portion,
wherein the downstream portion contains Rh fine particles, and
wherein the Rh fine particles have an average particle size measured by a transmission electron microscope observation of 1.0 nm or more to 2.0 nm or less, and a standard deviation σ of the particle size of 0.8 nm or less.
