Vehicle equipped with traveling motor

A vehicle equipped with a traveling motor, the vehicle comprising:

• two front pillars arranged on both sides of the vehicle in a vehicle-width direction in a front part of a cabin in a vehicle-longitudinal direction, each of the front pillars extending in a vehicle-vertical direction;
• a dash panel coupling the two front pillars to each other;
• two side members extending in the vehicle-longitudinal direction in a front space of the dash panel, the side members being coupled to the dash panel;
• a power unit arranged between the two side members, the power unit including the traveling motor;
• an electric-power converter arranged adjacent to the power unit, the electric-power converter located at a higher position in the vehicle-vertical direction than the side members, the electric-power converter being configured to convert electric power of an electric power source to driving electric power for the traveling motor;
• and
• a first auxiliary frame member, a first end of the first auxiliary frame member being coupled to one of the front pillars located closer to the electric-power converter than the other one of the front pillars is, the first auxiliary frame member extending in such a manner as to, as viewed from the vehicle-width direction, pass a position where the first auxiliary frame member overlaps with the electric-power converter or a position higher than the electric-power converter in the vehicle-vertical direction, and a second end of the first auxiliary frame member being coupled to one of the side members located closer to the electric-power converter than the other one of the side members is, at a more frontward position in the vehicle-longitudinal direction than the electric-power converter.
