ABSTRACT:
A structure for connecting front pillars and a cowl in a vehicle has a cowl assembly including a cowl inner which extends in the lateral direction of the vehicle, a pair of front pillar assemblies provided so as to stand at two lateral ends, respectively, of the vehicle and each including an outer member and an inner member with respect to the lateral direction of the vehicle; and a pair of cowl side panels for connecting the cowl assembly and the pair of front pillar assemblies. A reinforcing means is rigidly secured to the outer and inner members of each of the front pillar assemblies so as to be stretched between these members, thereby partitioning a space with a closed section defined by the two members. The reinforcing member extends from the corresponding front pillar assembly either inwardly in the lateral direction of the vehicle or toward the front end of the vehicle so as to be further connected to the cowl assembly.
