Fuel cell vehicle

A fuel cell vehicle includes a front compartment, a cowl top, a hood, and a blocking member. The front compartment is provided in front of a dashboard. A fuel cell is disposed in the front compartment. The cowl top is disposed between the front compartment and the dashboard and hermetically sealed from the front compartment via a sealing portion. The front compartment is opened or closed via the hood. The hood includes an outer plate and an inner plate that are joined together to provide an inner passage between the outer plate and the inner plate. The inner passage extends from the front compartment to the cowl top bypassing the sealing portion. The blocking member is disposed in the inner passage to block flow of fluid between the front compartment and the cowl top.
