A vehicular pedal supporting structure includes a pedal bracket, a suspension-type pedal, and a guide. A front portion of the pedal bracket is fixed to a first vehicle-body-side constituent member disposed on a front side of a vehicle, while a rear portion of the pedal bracket is extended toward a rear side of the vehicle. The suspension-type pedal is supported on both lateral portions of the pedal bracket so as to be swingable around a center shaft, and includes a trodden face to which a treading force of a passenger is applied. The guide is provided in a second vehicle-body-side constituent member disposed behind the first vehicle-body-side constituent member with respect to the vehicle, and causes the rear portion of the pedal bracket on which the pedal is supported to be rotationally displaced backwards and downwards with respect to the vehicle when the pedal bracket is displaced backwards with respect to the vehicle together with the first vehicle-body-side constituent member as a result of application of an external force from the front side of the vehicle. In this vehicular pedal supporting structure, the pedal bracket is provided with a rupture creation device for ensuring that the rear portion of the pedal bracket is at least partially ruptured from the front portion thereof when the rear portion of the pedal bracket is rotationally displaced.
