| 1. A vehicular body front structure, comprising:
a reactive force member disposed adjacent to a front edge part of a vehicular body having a front part including a hood configured
to open or close, a part of the hood being configured to serve as the reactive force member to be displaceable from a received
state where the reactive force member is received in the vehicular body to a protruding state where the reactive force member
protrudes to a position higher than a surface of the vehicular body;
a mover mechanism disposed between the vehicular body and the reactive force member and configured to displace the reactive
force member from the received state to the protruding state; and
a shock sensor configured to sense or calculate a collision of the vehicular body with an obstacle to thereby output a sensing
signal for moving the mover mechanism.
