Abstract: An electrical component module is installed in a front section of a vehicle, and connected with a battery unit storing electricity for driving the vehicle. The electrical component module is supported by a vehicle body structure member (cross-member) extending in a lateral direction of the vehicle. The cross-member is closer to a passenger compartment than the electrical component module, and doesn't overlap with the electrical component module when viewed along any horizontal direction perpendicular to a vertical direction of the vehicle. Between the cross-member and the electrical component module, provided is a release mechanism for releasing the support of the electrical component module by the cross-member when receiving an impact from an opposite side to the passenger compartment.

Abstract: A vehicle charging port arrangement is provided with a vehicle body, a charging port support member and an electric charging port. The vehicle body includes a vehicle front end portion. The charging port support member is supported on the vehicle front end portion. The charging port support member includes an energy absorbing structure that is configured and arranged to deform towards a support structure of the vehicle front end portion and into an energy absorbing area that is disposed forward of the support structure of the vehicle front end portion during a frontal impact. The electric charging port is attached to the charging port support member, with the electric charging port being configured to receive an electric charging connector.

Abstract: A front underfloor structure of a vehicle (EV) includes a protruding member protruding downward from a front underfloor surface of the vehicle, and redirects a flow of traveling air that flows around a front underfloor while traveling. The protruding member is configured as a protruding member with curved surface (31) disposed at a position closer to the vehicle front than front tires (1L, 1R) and in a central portion of the front underfloor straddling a vehicle center line (CL). The protruding member with curved surface (31) has a circumference of protrusion in a vehicle longitudinal direction that is longest at the position of the vehicle center line (CL), and the circumference of protrusion in the vehicle longitudinal direction becomes gradually shorter with increasing distance from the vehicle center line (CL) on both sides in a vehicle width direction.

Abstract: A front underfloor structure of a vehicle includes front deflectors disposed forward of front tires, respectively. The front deflectors each include a front apex portion disposed at a position closer to the vehicle front than a leading edge surface of each of the front tires when straight, and disposed at a position closer to a vehicle center line than an inner surface of each of the front tires when straight; an outer end portion disposed at a position closer to the vehicle rear than the front apex portion, and disposed at a position outward in the vehicle width direction of the front apex portion; and a second flow redirection surface connecting the front apex portion and the outer end portion, and being configured such that, when struck by air traveling from the vehicle front, the second flow redirection surface redirects a flow of the traveling air outward in the vehicle.
