Abstract
A strut mount structure for a vehicle for supporting a strut of a strut-type suspension is disclosed. Since the strut mount structure does not have any protruded portions with respect to a front hood while maintaining equal distance between the strut mount unit and the front hood, it is possible to freely choose the design of the front hood. Furthermore, the strut mount structure with a satisfactory large distance between the strut mount unit and the front hood absorbs impact well when a pedestrian comes into contact with the vehicle on the front hood.
