PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an amphibious vehicle capable of reducing various resistances during on-water driving and suppressing adhesion of submerged aquatic plants, etc. with a simple structure and low manufacturing cost.SOLUTION: An amphibious vehicle 1 has a body, front wheels 41, and rear wheels 46. The left/right rear wheels are rotatably supported by rear-wheel axle shafts 47A and 47B attached to a bottom surface of the body. A propelling device 60 for on-water driving is attached to a back of the rear-wheel axle shafts. The amphibious vehicle is provided with a rear under cover 80 which is divided to the front and back to cover the peripheries of the rear-wheel axle shafts from the lower side while exposing the rear wheels to allow driving. In the rear under cover, a rear-part tilt surface 85 extending to the rear and upper side from the position covering the peripheries of the rear-wheel axle shafts is formed. The rear-part tilt surface is configured so as to be able to guide water streams toward the propelling device upon on-water driving. |
