Abstract
A vehicle front structure includes a front window glass, a washer nozzle, a cowl, and plate members. The front window glass includes angle-of-view areas at its upper portions. The angle-of-view areas cover angles of view of left and right imagers disposed on an interior of a vehicle. The washer nozzle ejects a washer fluid to an outer surface of the front window glass. The cowl is recessed and extends in a vehicle width direction between the front window glass and a front hood. The plate members stand erect in the cowl and extend in a vehicle front-rear direction. The plate members are disposed at least one at each outer side, in the vehicle width direction, of a widthwise center of the vehicle. The plate members extend toward an area interposed between outer edges of the angle-of-view areas in the vehicle width direction in a plan view of the vehicle.
