Abstract
A vehicle front structure prevents unintentional package movement during travel while allowing access to a trunk from a vehicle cabin side. Embodiments include a vehicle having a front trunk, a glove box, and a communication portion. The front trunk has a housing space at a front of the vehicle to house a package. The glove box is at a front part of a vehicle cabin and has a housing space into and out of which a package can be taken, and a lid to open and close an opening. The communication portion has a communication space providing communication between the housing space of the front trunk and the housing space of the glove box. A raised wall that restricts package movement in the communication space is provided at an opening section of the communication space, such as a front opening at a front end part of the communication space.
