Abstract
A front end module for covering a front of a front vehicle part of a motor vehicle includes a crossmember that is connectable to longitudinal carriers of a motor vehicle frame so as to absorb loads of a bumper. An upper frame element is connected to the crossmember for supporting an engine hood. A receiving region for receiving a radiator grill is disposed between the crossmember and the upper frame element. Fastening elements disposed on the crossmember and/or the upper frame element are configured to fasten an intercooler for cooling charge air of a turbocharger, with respect to the driving direction, in front of a wheel arch that receives a front wheel. A crash structure is connected to the fastening elements for absorbing impact energy by way of plastic deformation and covers a majority of the front wheel in an installed state of the front end module.
