The hood includes a front face having a plurality of first air vent holes and right and left side faces each having a plurality of second air vent holes. A radiator is mounted inside the hood, ambient air being drawn in through the first and second air vent holes toward the radiator. A vent hole area ratio of each side face of the hood determined by the second air vent holes is set smaller than a vent hole area ratio of the front face of the hood determined by the first air vent holes.
