Motor vehicle presenting a median longitudinal axis, parallel to the straight direction of travel, and comprising a plurality of wheels, a bodywork having two opposite sidewalls defining a respective wheel compartment for each wheel, bounded by a respective wheel arch, and, for each wheel compartment, a wheel arch trim disposed at the respective wheel arch. Each wheel arch trim comprises a first arch-shaped portion, disposed within the volume defined by the bodywork and attached to a body shell of the motor vehicle, a second arch-shaped portion, protruding externally from the bodywork with respect to the relative wheel arch, and a airflow channeling formed at least partially on the second arch-shaped portion to create an air blade tangent to the outer sidewall of the respective wheel and to the area of the respective sidewall adjacent to the respective wheel arch.

Motor vehicle with improved wheel arch trims

A door for a motor vehicle comprising: a lock available in a closed configuration and in an open configuration; a support body comprising a first portion and a second portion, which are integral to one another, when said door is in a normal operating condition; a ratchet supported by the first portion of the support body; a Bowden cable, which is interposed between the ratchet and the lock, can be operated by said ratchet to cause the lock to shift from the closed configuration to the open configuration and is at least partly housed in a first seat defined by the first portion of the support body; the support body comprises a preferential breaking area designed to break, in use, due a predetermined load in case of impact of the door, so as to determine the separation of the first portion carrying the Bowden cable and the ratchet from the second portion of the support body.

Door for a motor vehicle

A handle for a door of a motor vehicle includes an attachment portion to be fixed to the door of the motor vehicle, a maneuverable portion coupled to the attachment portion in a movable manner between at least three distinct positions including a neutral position, a first activation position, and a second activation position, and a transducer device configured to detect a first movement of the manoeuvrable portion reaching the first activation position, generate a first signal to trigger an automatic opening of the door by means of an actuator device of the motor vehicle when the first movement is detected, and detect a second movement of the manoeuvrable portion reaching the second activation position, wherein the transducer device is further configured to generate a second signal to trigger an automatic closing of the door by means of the actuator device when the second movement is detected.
