Abstract:
1. A vehicle front body structure including: a vehicle body structural member disposed below a front end of a hood and extends along the vehicle width direction; and an energy absorbing member protruding toward a vehicle front side from the vehicle body structural member and extending along the vehicle width direction, the energy absorbing member being configured to deform so as to absorb energy upon a collision, wherein the energy absorbing member is secured to the vehicle body structural member at opposite ends of the energy absorbing member in the vehicle width direction, and a clearance is defined between a central part of the energy absorbing member in the vehicle width direction and the vehicle body structural member, and an edge line is formed in an upper side of the energy absorbing member, the edge line defining a convex shape extending along the upper side of the energy absorbing member in the vehicle width direction, the edge line being configured to induce a buckling deformation of the energy absorbing member.
