Abstract
An air supply mechanism of an electric vehicle includes: a first air flowing pipe; a second air flowing pipe; and an air blower configured to generate a flow of air such that the air flows through a first air inlet into a first air flowing pipe and is discharged through a first air outlet to electric component accommodating spaces, and the air in the electric component accommodating spaces flows through a second air inlet into a second air flowing pipe and is discharged through a second air outlet to a space outside a vehicle body. The first air inlet and the second air outlet are arranged higher than a first battery, a second battery, and an inverter serving as 'electric components.'
