A steering apparatus for actively controlling an at least semi-autonomously driven motor vehicle. The steering apparatus includes a steering body having an axis of rotation, a steering wheel handle and a steering wheel canister. The steering wheel handle and the steering wheel canister are rotatably connected to one another about an axis of rotation. An airbag module is arranged within the steering wheel canister, wherein the steering body has an active position and a stowed position, and is movable between these positions. In the active position, the steering body is rotatable about the axis of rotation for active control of a relevant motor vehicle. The airbag module is held in the steering wheel canister in a functionally identical orientation irrespective of the position of the steering body. An increase in the seating and movement freedom of the driver during a (fully) autonomous operation can be realized while maintaining safety.

A body floor () for an electric vehicle () has a battery frame () that receives battery modules (). An interior cover () separates an interior () from the battery modules (). At least one crossmember () extends transverse to a vehicle longitudinal direction () and is on the battery side of the interior cover (). A seat attachment () for connecting a vehicle seat () is arranged on the interior side of the interior cover (). The battery modules () are attached to the crossmember () by the battery frame (), and the body floor () is a supporting component of the body structure of a vehicle (). The seat attachment () is attached to the body floor () on the battery side of the interior cover (). With this construction, the vehicle seat is low while simultaneously arranging battery modules below the vehicle seat.

A vehicle has a door frame and a vehicle door assigned to the door frame, which door frame has a security compartment for holding valuables. The security compartment has a security compartment opening in the door frame. The vehicle door is movable between a closed first state and an open second state, wherein the security compartment is covered by the vehicle door in the first state, and wherein the security compartment is accessible via the door frame in the second state.

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.

Motor vehicle front section

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 ().
