<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To straighten an air flow in a lateral side of a vehicle.SOLUTION: A vehicle 10 to which a vehicle front structure S is applied has a step part 20 formed integrally at both vehicle-width-directional ends of a front bumper 18. A maximum size of an inclined surface 22 of the step part 20 is set to be not smaller than 30 and not larger than 150 mm. Consequently, an air current swallowing the step part 20 in plain view is excellently generated. The inclined surface 22 is so set as to have an angleθof inclination of not smaller than 30 and not larger than 60° to the vehicle front-rear direction. Consequently, an air current Fb swallowing a lower end part of the inclined surface 22 in side view is excellently generated. With the air current swallowing the step part 20 in plan view and the air current Fb, a vortex flow F2 having its axis in the vehicle front-rear direction is generated on a vehicle rear side of the step part 20, and flows in a lateral side of the vehicle 10 to the vehicle rear side. Consequently, the air flow in the lateral side of the vehicle 10 is straightened with the vortex flow F2.</p> |
