In a mobile vehiclehaving a vehicle body, a front wheel, and a rear wheel, the steering control wheelcan be steered by a steering actuatorabout a steering axis Csf which is tilted backward. The steering actuatoris controlled by a control device. The height a, from a ground surface, of the intersection point Ef of the steering axis Csf of the steering control wheeland a virtual straight line connecting the ground contact point of the steering control wheeland the center of axle of the steering control wheelin a basic posture state of the mobile vehicleis set to satisfy a prescribed condition.

A saddle ride vehicle includes a fuel cell formed in a rectangular, parallelepiped shape disposed below a vehicle seat. The fuel cell is inclined toward a vehicle rear. A pivot shaft is disposed in a range X defined forwardly of a vertex P of a side-view rectangle of the fuel cell, and defined rearwardly of a vertex Q of the side-view rectangle, and is disposed in a range Y defined below the vertex P and defined above the vertex Q. Foot rest parts are disposed between a steering handle and the seat. The fuel cell is disposed on the side of the foot rest parts, so that the center of gravity Gof the fuel cell is located on the vehicle body front side relative to the seating part center Gin the front-rear direction of the center of gravity of the driver at the time of riding.
