To provide a front body structure of a vehicle that separates on a vehicle front end, travelling-air that impacts a bumper face and flows from a lower side of the vehicle toward an upper side of the vehicle, and makes the separated travelling-air flow onto an upper surface of an exterior member and then makes the travelling-air flow along the upper surface of the exterior member, so that an aerodynamic performance can be secured.SOLUTION: A front vehicle body structure of a vehicle comprises exterior members 20 and 10 covering an upper side of an engine room provided at a front side of the vehicle and a front grille 40 arranged at a lower side in a vertical direction of the vehicle than front end parts of the exterior members. A rectifying member 80 extending over a nearly whole width in a vehicle width direction of the exterior member 20 is provided below the front end part of the exterior member 20. In the rectifying member 80 are formed a front piece part 84 extending to a lower side in the vertical direction of the vehicle, from the exterior member 20 toward an upper end part of the front griller 40 and a lower piece part 82 extending from an upper end of the front piece part 84 to a rear side of the vehicle.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】バンパフェースに当たった後に、車両下側から車両上側に向けて流れる走行風を車両前端で剥離し、剥離後の走行風を外装部材の上面に回り込ませ、当該走行風を外装部材上面に沿わせて、空力性能を確保することができる車両の前部車体構造の提供を目的とする。【解決手段】車両前部に設けられたエンジンルームの上方を覆う外装部材２０，１０と、外装部材の前端部よりも車両上下方向下側に配置されたフロントグリル４０とを備えた車両の前部車体構造であって、外装部材２０の前端部の下側に外装部材２０の車幅方向の略全幅にわたって延びる整流部材８０を設け、整流部材８０は、外装部材２０からフロントグリル４０の上端部に向かって車両上下方向下側に延びる前片部８４と、前片部８４の上端から車両後方に延びる下片部８２が形成されたことを特徴とする。【選択図】図３
