Abstract
A frame structure of an electric vehicle including right and left drive wheels is capable of being simplified while communalizing components and achieving an efficient arrangement of a running gear and electrical components. An electric vehicle includes a running gear including an electromotor and a speed reduction gear, and a running gear support frame provided to surround the running gear. The speed reduction gear is arranged in the right-to-left center of a vehicle body. The electromotor is configured in such a manner that an axis direction is arranged along a vehicle right-to-left direction so that the electromotor extends to one side in a right-to-left direction of the speed reduction gear and is arranged between the speed reduction gear and a left lower side frame of the running gear support frame.
