A fuel cell electric vehicle includes a ladder frame, a fuel cell stack, a fuel tank, a joint, and a center tunnel. The ladder frame includes two side members extending in parallel in a front-rear direction of the fuel cell electric vehicle and a plurality of cross members linking the two side members. The fuel tank stores fuel gas to be used by the fuel cell stack. The fuel cell stack and the fuel tank are fixed to the ladder frame. The fuel tank and the joint are linked by a first fuel pipe made of metal, and the joint and the fuel cell stack are linked by a second fuel pipe. The fuel tank and the joint are supported by the ladder frame and accordingly the relative vibration of the joint with respect to the fuel tank is reduced, and are disposed in the center tunnel.
