A combustion engine for a motor vehicle includes an output shaft, an intake tract, an exhaust gas tract, an exhaust gas aftertreatment device disposed in the exhaust gas tract, a heating element disposed in the exhaust gas tract upstream of the exhaust gas aftertreatment device, an electrically assisted exhaust gas turbocharger, and a conduit element which is fluidically connected to the exhaust gas tract at a first connection point disposed downstream of the exhaust gas aftertreatment device and at a second connection point disposed upstream of the heating element.

Combustion engine for a motor vehicle, and motor vehicle

An internal combustion engine for a motor vehicle includes an output shaft, an intake manifold, an exhaust manifold, an exhaust gas aftertreatment device disposed in the exhaust manifold, a heating element disposed in the exhaust manifold upstream of the exhaust gas aftertreatment device, an electrically assisted exhaust gas turbocharger, and a conduit element that extends inside the exhaust gas turbocharger and through which a heating medium is flowable. Via the conduit element at least a part of the heating medium is guidable through the exhaust gas turbocharger from the intake manifold into the exhaust manifold.

Internal combustion engine for a motor vehicle, and motor vehicle

An internal combustion engine for a motor vehicle includes a drive shaft, an intake tract, an exhaust gas tract, an exhaust gas aftertreatment device disposed in the exhaust gas tract, a heating element disposed in the exhaust gas tract upstream of the exhaust gas aftertreatment device, an electrically assisted exhaust gas turbocharger, and a conduit element which is fluidically connected to the exhaust gas tract at a first connection point disposed downstream of the exhaust gas aftertreatment device and at a second connection point disposed upstream of the heating element.

Internal combustion engine for a motor vehicle and motor vehicle

An internal combustion engine for a motor vehicle includes an exhaust system through which exhaust gas can flow and in which a first exhaust gas aftertreatment element is disposed. An exhaust gas turbocharger has a turbine and the turbine has a turbine wheel which is disposed upstream of the first exhaust gas aftertreatment element. A bypass line bypasses the turbine wheel and via the bypass line at least part of the exhaust gas can bypass the turbine wheel. The bypass line also bypasses the first exhaust gas aftertreatment element. The bypass line is fluidically connected to the exhaust system at a branch point disposed upstream of the turbine wheel and upstream of the first exhaust gas aftertreatment element. The bypass line is fluidically connected to the exhaust system at a discharge point disposed downstream of the turbine wheel and downstream of the first exhaust gas aftertreatment element.
