Abstract: In an engine compartment, an engine, a generator using the engine as a power source, a motor for driving the vehicle, and a gear box are arranged in alignment in a vehicle width direction. The first high-voltage equipment is vertically provided on a generating unit that includes the engine and the generator. The second high-voltage equipment is vertically provided on a drive unit that includes the motor and the gear box. The first high-voltage equipment and the second high-voltage equipment are coupled by a coupling member that extends substantially horizontally in the vehicle width direction and supports the high-voltage equipment, against a falling load directed from one thereof toward the other.
