A front pillar upper structure of a vehicle includes an outer member and an inner member. The inner member forms an inner wall of the front pillar upper structure in a vehicle-width direction, and is joined to the outer member forming an outer wall in the vehicle-width direction to form a closed cross-section structure. The inner member includes a flange part, a first wall part, and a second wall part. The second wall part is disposed between the flange part located on the lower side of the inner member and joined to the outer member and the first wall part located above the flange part. The second wall part has an angle of inclination in a range from 41° to 68° to a principal axis of inertia extending in the vehicle-width direction in a cross section substantially vertical to a longitudinal direction of the front pillar upper structure.
