ABSTRACT:
In a fuel cell vehicle10of the invention, fuel cells20are integrally placed in a lower space15of a front seat14, while a secondary battery40is integrally placed in a lower space18of a rear seat17. The integral arrangements of the fuel cells20and the secondary battery40separately in the lower space15of the front seat14and in the lower space18of the rear seat17ensure high-performance operations of both the fuel cells20and the secondary battery40having different working environments. This arrangement also attains the effective use of the generally-dead, lower spaces15and18of the front and rear seats14and17to receive the fuel cells20, the secondary battery40, and their peripheral equipment.
