Thickness T in a vehicle longitudinal direction of a first energy-absorbing member, which is disposed at a front portion of a vehicle, tapers from a middle portion of a vehicle lateral direction (thickness Tc) toward an end portion (thickness Ts). For at least one (preferably both) of the first energy-absorbing memberand a second energy-absorbing member, rigidity in the vehicle longitudinal direction is made smaller from the vehicle lateral direction end portion toward the middle. Hence, loads acting on an impact bodywhen the vehicleimpacts with the impact bodyare equalized in the vehicle lateral direction.
