An exhaust gas heating device includes a housing and a heating element arranged in the housing for heating exhaust gases flowing through the housing. The heating element comprises a first and a second connecting region. A power source for supplying electricity to the heating element, comprises a first connecting element, connected to the first connecting region of the heating element, and intended to supply the heating element () with electricity, and a second connecting element. The electrical power source comprises a third connecting element that comprises an electrical connector, electrically connecting the second connecting element to the second connecting region of the heating element.

Exhaust gas heating device, associated exhaust line and vehicle

A heating device comprises a heating element having a central area and a peripheral edge. The heating element has a series of slots delimiting a series of longitudinal branches connected to one another by elbows. The central area is made of a first electrically conductive material that is permeable to exhaust gases and has a first relative density. The elbows are located in the peripheral edge and are made of a second electrically conductive material and that has a second relative density greater than the first relative density.
