Abstract

A four-wheel vehicle includes a compact operation lever unit and is constructed so as to secure a sufficient space between the seat and the dashboard. In the four-wheel vehicle, a main body of the operation lever unit includes a first pivoting member, a stopper, and a second pivoting member. The first pivoting member is pivotable between a first position at which a first drive switching mechanism is set to a first mode, and a second position at which the first drive switching mechanism is set to a second mode. The first pivoting member is biased toward the second position. The stopper is arranged to restrict pivoting of the first pivoting member beyond the second position. The second pivoting member is pivotable in conjunction with an operation lever and includes a contact portion that causes the first pivoting member to pivot to a side of the first position against a biasing force. Further, when the contact portion is brought into contact with the first pivoting member, the second pivoting member sets a second drive switching mechanism to the first mode, and when the contact portion is at a predetermined position separated from the first pivoting member, the second pivoting member sets the second drive switching mechanism to the second mode.
