Abstract
A vehicle front structure includes a front side member extending in a vehicle front-rear direction in a front portion of a vehicle body, an upper side member disposed above the front side member in a vehicle and extending in the vehicle front-rear direction, and a suspension tower joined to the front side member and the upper side member. The suspension tower is made of aluminum alloy integrally formed by press working. The vehicle front structure is capable of being reduced in weight and being more easily manufactured without introducing new equipment.
