A motor vehicle has a rear diffuser which includes a diffuser element which can be moved into a diffuser position in order to influence a driving behavior of the motor vehicle in respect of vehicle downforce and air resistance. The diffuser element, in a closed position, covers an opening of a hitch device, which is exposed by the diffuser element in an open position.

A rear module for a vehicle includes a crossmember that extends along a transverse direction and is connected to the vehicle body and a bumper connected to the crossmember. The bumper includes an aperture. The rear module further includes a reversing camera that protrudes through the bumper, and a first impact element and a second impact element arranged on the bumper to a respective first side and a respective second side of the reversing camera and at a lateral spacing, in the transverse direction, from the reversing camera. The first impact element and the second impact element protrude, in the longitudinal direction, beyond the reversing camera and/or the bumper.

Rear module

A rear diffusor unit includes a base element configured to be mounted in a fixed position on a body of a vehicle; a movable diffusor element; and a drive device with which the movable diffusor element is movable relative to the base element between two end positions. The diffusor element is a box diffusor element having two fixed side walls, a fixed rear wall, and a fixed base.

A multi-part air duct () for a motor vehicle has a lower foam part (), an upper foam part (), and lateral injection moldings (). The injection moldings () connect the lower foam part () to the upper foam part () on both sides.

Multi-part air duct for a motor vehicle and motor vehicle having an air duct of this type

A front-end part () for a motor vehicle () has an inlet opening () for the introduction of headwind. An air duct adjoins the inlet opening () for supplying the headwind to a radiator and/or to an air conditioning device. An air-directing element () directs the headwind into the air duct. A sound generator () outputs an acoustic signal along a sound path. The air-directing element () at least partially covers the sound generator () in the sound path. The air-direction element () has a textile material that is sound-permeable for the acoustic signal of the sound generator. The textile material conducts headwind away and also covers the sound generator () without significantly affecting the perception of the acoustic signal. Therefore, a simple design of a front-end part () for a motor vehicle () is provided with a small number of components.

Front end part for a motor vehicle

A front end arrangement of a motor vehicle has a front end module () that is fastened directly or indirectly to vehicle longitudinal carriers of a vehicle body arrangement which delimit an engine compartment (). At least one cooling apparatus () is mounted in a floating manner on that side of the front end module () that is directed toward the engine compartment (). At least one air guide duct is fastened to the front end module () and is provided with at least one air guide arrangement (). The air guide arrangement () is connected via fastening means () to the cooling apparatus ().
