To provide a front body structure of a vehicle capable of inhibiting a movement that a front part of a vehicle goes down from occurring at a time of an off-set collision of the vehicle.SOLUTION: A front body structure includes: hinge pillars 30 extending in a vertical direction of a vehicle; side sills 20 whose front ends are located on a vehicle front side of the respective hinge pillars 30; and hubs 27 disposed in front of the respective hinge pillars 30. A high rigidity part X2 is fixed to the hinge pillar 30 above the front end of the side sill 20 and extends in a vehicular fore-and-aft direction. The high rigidity part X2 tilts so as to become lower as proceeding forward. An area α in the vertical direction between a front end of the high rigidity part X2 and the front end of the side sill 20 and an area β in the vertical direction between a center position CE of the hub 27 and an upper end position WU of the hub 27 overlap with each other in the vertical direction in a vehicle front view.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】車両のオフセット衝突時に、車両前方が下方に沈み込む挙動を抑制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】車両の上下方向に延びるヒンジピラー３０と、前端部がヒンジピラー３０よりも車両前方に位置するサイドシル２０と、上記ヒンジピラー３０の前方に設けられるホイール２７と、を備え、サイドシル２０前端部の上方においてヒンジピラー３０に固定され、車両の前後方向に延びる高剛性部Ｘ２を備え、高剛性部Ｘ２は前方ほど下方に位置するよう傾斜しており、高剛性部Ｘ２前端とサイドシル２０前端との間の上下方向の領域αと、ホイール２７の中心位置ＣＥとホイール２７の上端位置ＷＵとの間の上下方向の領域βと、が車両正面視で上下方向に重複するように設けられたことを特徴とする。【選択図】図４
