Abstract
A vehicle front structure is mounted on a vehicle, and includes a steering gearbox that includes a steering rack with rack teeth being formed thereon, and a pinion that meshes with the rack teeth. A shaft of the pinion protrudes rearward and downward of the vehicle. Thus, the vehicle front structure can reduce damage by the steering gearbox to the vehicle interior in case of a frontal collision of the vehicle.
