A vehicle front portion structure comprising:
- a pair of front side members extending in a vehicle front-rear direction, the front side members being disposed at an interval in a vehicle width direction;
- an MC cross-member suspended between the front side members, the MC cross-member being provided with a front cross portion extending in the vehicle width direction and a rear cross portion provided behind the front cross portion and extending in the vehicle width direction;
- and
- a motor mount configured to connect a high-voltage component to the MC cross-member, the motor mount being suspended between the front cross portion and the rear cross portion.
A supporting structure for a vehicle high-voltage unit, the supporting structure comprising:
- a pair of motor mounts attached to opposite ends of a rotating electrical machine unit in a width direction;
- and
- an MC cross-member of which opposite ends in a vehicle width direction are fastened to a pair of front side members extending in a vehicle front-rear direction, the rotating electrical machine unit being attached to a lower portion of the MC cross-member via the motor mounts and a high-voltage device being attached to an upper portion of the MC cross-member, wherein:
- an opening portion vertically penetrating the MC cross-member is formed in a central portion of the MC cross-member;
- and
- front and rear end portions of each of the motor mounts are fastened to the MC cross-member with the opening portion of the MC cross-member interposed between the front and rear end portions of each of the motor mounts in the vehicle front-rear direction.
A vehicle front portion structure comprising:
- a first front side member extending in a vehicle front-rear direction;
- a second front side member extending in the vehicle front-rear direction, the second front side member being separated from the first front side member by an interval in a vehicle width direction;
- an MC cross-member suspended between the first front side member and the second front side member such that the MC cross-member is separated from the first front side member and the second side member by a clearance, the MC cross-member comprising:
- a front cross portion extending in the vehicle width direction;
- a rear cross portion separated from the front cross portion in the vehicle front-rear direction and extending in the vehicle width direction;
- a first side portion between the front cross portion and the rear cross portion;
- and
- a second side portion between the front cross portion and the rear cross portion, the second side portion being separated from the second side portion in the vehicle width direction;
- and
- motor mounts configured to connect a high-voltage component to the MC cross-member, the motor mounts being suspended between the first side portion, the second side portion, the front cross portion and the rear cross portion.
