A midfloor module () for a motor vehicle has a frame structure () with a battery frame (). The battery frame () has multiple battery modules (), and multiple tank volumes (+) that can be used optionally for fuel. A motor vehicle that is equipped with such a midfloor module () also is provided as well as a method for manufacturing the midfloor module ().

A motor vehicle front section of a motor vehicle includes a first spatial region, a second spatial region formed separately from the first spatial region, a first cover that covers the first spatial region, and a second cover that covers the second spatial region. The first cover extends substantially over a width of the motor vehicle front section, and the second cover extends substantially over the width of the motor vehicle front section. The first cover is arranged in front of or behind the second cover in a vehicle longitudinal direction. An access is provided in at least one of the covers for at least one connection arranged underneath the cover.

A stowage system () is provided for stowing a two-wheeled vehicle () in a motor vehicle (), having a loading floor () for depositing the two-wheeled vehicle (), and a lifting device () which can be supported on a load-bearing structure () of the motor vehicle () for moving the loading floor () between a loading position and a stowing position. The loading floor () has at least one three-dimensionally shaped first centring means () for positioning the two-wheeled vehicle () at least in a first coordinate direction relative to the loading floor (). A two-wheeled vehicle () can be stowed in a space-saving manner and protected against damage by of the loading floor () which can be lowered and the at least one centring means ().

A fastening arrangement for a center console module of a motor vehicle includes a transversely extending assembly carrier, a pedal bracket rigidly fastened to the assembly carrier, and a front wall cover connected with the pedal bracket. The assembly carrier is fastened by way of first screwed connections to the two adjoining opposite A-columns, and the front wall cover is fastened by way of second screwed connections to the front wall. So that a clean joint pattern is created between the control panel and the adjoining covering parts in the vehicle occupant compartment, while the mounting is simple and reliable with respect to the process and irrespective of the occurring body shell tolerances, it is provided that one stop part respectively for fastening the assembly carrier in the X-direction is arranged on the two A-columns, and that, between the pedal bracket and the front wall cover, an adjusting device is connected, by means of which body shell and manufacturing tolerances in the X-direction can be compensated.

A steering column support for a motor vehicle includes a steering column unit, a cross member supporting the steering column unit, at least one reinforcing strut connected with the cross member, and a receiving element for a knee restraint connected with the reinforcing strut(s) and the steering column unit. The steering column support controls and prevent undesirable vibration of the steering wheel.

A filler pipe for a fuel tank of a motor vehicle includes at its cap end a cylindrical insert whereby an elastic sealing ring is arranged between an outer surface of the insert and an inner surface of the filler pipe made of plastic material. In order that a simple cost-favorable connection between the insert and the filler pipe is achieved combined with a good seal, the profiled sealing ring having an elongated cross-sectional shape is mounted on the insert under prestress. Furthermore, the insert and sealing ring are subjected to a common blow-molding operation.
