ABSTRACT:
In an electric vehicle in which a battery container box is disposed under the floor of the vehicle, a fuel tank for a combustion type of heater is easily mounted with a good space efficiency. For that purpose, the fuel tank is formed into a shape of a substantially square column which is elongated in the widthwise direction of the vehicle and which is made of two halves divided along a diagonal plane to connect a bottom line of one of the horizontally opposing planes and an upper line of the other of the horizontally opposing planes. Brackets are attached to side surfaces of the fuel tank, and the fuel tank is mounted under the floor of the vehicle via the brackets behind the battery container box so as to be close thereto.
