A shifting device for a vehicle, the shifting device characterized by comprising: a shift lever that is operable in a shift direction and a select direction that intersects with the shift direction, the shift lever including a spherical proximal end portion; and a main body that has a circular hole, the main body being configured to hold the shift lever in the circular hole, wherein: the shift lever includes a guide protrusion (24, 54), the guide protrusion (24, 54) being configured to inhibit rotation of the shift lever about an axis of the shift lever, the guide protrusion (24, 54) protruding from the spherical proximal end portion in one direction of the shift direction and the select direction; the main body includes an operating direction guide groove (26, 56), the operating direction guide groove (26, 56) being configured to guide the guide protrusion (24, 54) so as to permit operation of the shift lever when the shift lever is operated; and characterised in that: when the shift lever is in a neutral position, an interval between a proximal end portion of the guide protrusion (24, 54) and an inner wall of the operating direction guide groove (26, 56) which is opposed to the proximal end portion is larger than an interval between a distal end portion of the guide protrusion (24, 54) and an inner wall of the operating direction guide groove (26, 56) which is opposed to the distal end portion. a shift lever that is operable in a shift direction and a select direction that intersects with the shift direction, the shift lever including a spherical proximal end portion; and a main body that has a circular hole, the main body being configured to hold the shift lever in the circular hole, wherein: the shift lever includes a guide protrusion (24, 54), the guide protrusion (24, 54) being configured to inhibit rotation of the shift lever about an axis of the shift lever, the guide protrusion (24, 54) protruding from the spherical proximal end portion in one direction of the shift direction and the select direction; the main body includes an operating direction guide groove (26, 56), the operating direction guide groove (26, 56) being configured to guide the guide protrusion (24, 54) so as to permit operation of the shift lever when the shift lever is operated; and characterised in that: when the shift lever is in a neutral position, an interval between a proximal end portion of the guide protrusion (24, 54) and an inner wall of the operating direction guide groove (26, 56) which is opposed to the proximal end portion is larger than an interval between a distal end portion of the guide protrusion (24, 54) and an inner wall of the operating direction guide groove (26, 56) which is opposed to the distal end portion. the shift lever includes a guide protrusion (24, 54), the guide protrusion (24, 54) being configured to inhibit rotation of the shift lever about an axis of the shift lever, the guide protrusion (24, 54) protruding from the spherical proximal end portion in one direction of the shift direction and the select direction; the main body includes an operating direction guide groove (26, 56), the operating direction guide groove (26, 56) being configured to guide the guide protrusion (24, 54) so as to permit operation of the shift lever when the shift lever is operated; and characterised in that: when the shift lever is in a neutral position, an interval between a proximal end portion of the guide protrusion (24, 54) and an inner wall of the operating direction guide groove (26, 56) which is opposed to the proximal end portion is larger than an interval between a distal end portion of the guide protrusion (24, 54) and an inner wall of the operating direction guide groove (26, 56) which is opposed to the distal end portion. when the shift lever is in a neutral position, an interval between a proximal end portion of the guide protrusion (24, 54) and an inner wall of the operating direction guide groove (26, 56) which is opposed to the proximal end portion is larger than an interval between a distal end portion of the guide protrusion (24, 54) and an inner wall of the operating direction guide groove (26, 56) which is opposed to the distal end portion.
