Original Abstract Submitted
The vehicle may include an electric power control unit configured to supply electric power to a motor. The vehicle may comprise a rear bracket located behind the electric power control unit and fixing the electric power control unit to the power unit. The vehicle may comprise a cable configured to supply high voltage electric power to the electric power control unit. The rear bracket may comprise a plate-shaped base portion and a support portion, the base portion is located along an upper surface of the power unit, and the support portion extends upward from the base portion and is located along a rear surface of the electric power control unit. An outer peripheral edge of the base portion may include a first specific edge that extends along a vehicle width direction and opposes the cable in the vehicle front-rear direction. The first specific edge may be curled or chamfered.
