A gas sensor includes a pump cell unit that regulates the oxygen concentration of a measured gas using a pump electrode, a monitor cell unit that detects the residual oxygen concentration of the measured gas using a monitor electrode, and a sensor cell unit that detects the concentration of a specific gas component in the measured gas using a sensor electrode. Between a pump electrode lead part and the sensor electrode, there is arranged the monitor electrode. Between an upstream portion of the pump electrode lead part and a monitor electrode lead part, there is provided an interval w1 of 0.5 mm or more.
