PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make the securement of safety at a front surface collision and the light weight of a vehicle compatible. SOLUTION: An engine under cover 36 is constituted of a resin material having high strength and the front end thereof is fastened to a radiator support lower 26 with a bolt. The rear end of the engine under cover 36 is fixed to the lower part side of the rear end of a kick part 30 of a front side member 10. Accordingly, at the front surface collision, a load is inputted from the radiator support lower 26 to the engine under cover 36 and predetermined energy is absorbed by deformation. As a result, since a load burden to the front side member 10 is reduced and a reinforcement or the like can be reduced, the light weight of the vehicle can be obtained. Safety at the front surface collision is also secured since the engine under cover 36 functions as an energy absorbing member. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
