A high voltage battery for vehicles includes an electrode tab that is divided into a first part placed near a battery cell, and a second part placed near a terminal. A first part extension extends from the first part and is fixed to a lower pouch. A second part extension extends from the second part, comes into contact with the first part extension, has elasticity, and is fixed at an upper end thereof to an upper pouch. A hook part extends from the first part extension and holds the second part extension by grasping an edge of the second part extension.
