A battery compartment for a traction battery, having a lower housing part with housing side walls and a housing bottom; a housing cover; and a crash frame with a closed hollow profile form along the housing side walls. In order to enable a low weight and outstanding crash behavior, it is proposed that the crash frame be provided in the lower housing part and have crash profiles, wherein the housing side walls and the crash profiles respectively form a profile section in the closed hollow profile form of the crash frame.

A battery carrier having a trough formed from shaped sheet metal, which has at least one trough side wall and a trough bottom connected to the trough side wall, a plurality of support profiles provided in the trough and affixed to the trough, at least one battery pack, which is affixed to at least two support profiles extending adjacent to the battery pack, a lid, which is detachably connected to said trough, and a heat exchanger, which is thermally connected to the battery pack and has at least one flow channel for a liquid. In order to enable a simple design and simple assembly and maintenance, it is proposed for the lid to form the heat exchanger, wherein the battery pack is arranged at a distance from the trough bottom and the trough bottom is permanently connected to the trough side wall or embodied of one piece with it.
