An object of the present invention is to efficiently mount a fuel cell system below a floor of a vehicle rear portion and to protect the fuel cell system when a forward impact force acts on a vehicle rear portion. To achieve this, a fuel cell vehicle in which a fuel cell system includes a gas tank is configured to store a fuel gas and a fuel cell unit formed by integrating a fuel cell stack, an intake duct, and an exhaust duct, the gas tank is disposed in a space below a rear floor connected to a front floor via a vertical wall portion and adjacent to the vertical wall portion, and the fuel cell unit is disposed behind the gas tank. In the fuel cell vehicle, an axle beam extending in a vehicle width direction and connecting left and right rear wheels to each other is disposed behind the gas tank, the fuel cell unit is disposed between the axle beam and a rear bumper, and vertical walls of front and rear portions of the fuel cell stack are covered with at least one of an upstream portion of the intake duct and a downstream portion of the exhaust duct.
