To provide a layout structure for a motor-driven power steering unit
controller configured to take into account the water level at which
submergence of the vehicle is expected to occur. In a vehicle including a
steering shaft rotatably supported on a vehicle body frame, a steering
bar handle attached to the upper end of the steering shaft, a
motor-driven power steering unit mounted onto the lower end of the
steering shaft, and at least two front wheels, a controller for
controlling the motor-driven power steering unit is laid out on the front
side relative to the steering shaft and above a horizontal line
indicative of the submergence limit of the vehicle.
