A vehicle input device includes: an interior panel that is an opaque plate-shaped member; and multiple fixing portions for fixing the interior panel to a vehicle. In the interior panel, an operation area portion in which multiple symbols indicating multiple control contents and a non-operation area portion are set. On a rear surface side of the operation area portion, a press sensor for detecting a press operation on a switch portion and a vibrator that vibrates the operation area portion are placed. The switch portion is a portion in which the multiple symbols are placed. The vehicle input device includes a controller that specifies an operation content and causes the vibrator to vibrate. The multiple fixing portions are placed in the non-operation area portion and are not placed in the operation area portion.
