HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE

A hybrid electric vehicle includes: an internal combustion engine; a rotary electric machine; an electric storage device; and a power control unit that converts electric power between the rotary electric machine and the electric storage device, and controls the rotary electric machine, the hybrid electric vehicle being capable of traveling by rotating a driving wheel by using power of at least one of the internal combustion engine and the rotary electric machine. Further, the power control unit is provided below the rotary electric machine, and a heat generation source that has higher temperature than the power control unit, a heat transfer inhibition unit that inhibits heat transfer from the heat generation source to the power control unit, and the power control unit are disposed in this order from one side to another side in a vehicle width direction.
