The mechanical-electrical integrated unit is constituted by a drive apparatus and an electric-power control apparatus that are housed in a same casing. The casing has an upper space and a lower space that are vertically separated within the casing. The electric-power control apparatus is housed in the upper space while the drive apparatus is housed in the lower space. The fastener is attached to a fastened portion which is provided in a side wall of the casing and which is thicker than a surrounding portion surrounding the fastened portion. The side member includes a fragile portion that is located in a position overlapping the fastened portion as viewed in a width direction of the vehicle.
