A vehicle exterior environment recognition apparatus includes a first road surface identifier and a second road surface identifier. The first road surface identifier identifies a first road surface region of a road surface in an image and generates a first road surface model by plotting, at respective vertical positions, representative distances of horizontal arrays of blocks in the first road surface region. The second road surface identifier identifies a second road surface region in the image and generates a second road surface model by plotting, at respective vertical positions, representative distances of horizontal arrays of blocks in the second road surface region. The second road surface region is a region of the road surface that is farther from a vehicle than the first road surface region is, and has a horizontal length greater than a horizontal length of the first road surface region in a three-dimensional space.
