A power storage device includes power storage cells stacked in one direction, a case for accommodating the power storage cells, and a restriction unit placed in the case and restricting a relative displacement of each power storage cell to the case in the one direction. The restriction unit shows a first modulus of elasticity when each power storage cell is displaced relative to the case at a first velocity and shows a second modulus of elasticity when each power storage cell is displaced relative to the case at a second velocity in the one direction. The first velocity is a relative velocity of each power storage cell to the case when each power storage cell expands, the second velocity is higher than the first velocity, and the second modulus of elasticity is higher than the first modulus of elasticity.
