Abstract

A latching system for a motor vehicle is formed of compact construction, that can manage with a small number of components and, enable bolting and/or opening the motor vehicle conveniently and quickly. The motor vehicle latching system is provided with an actuator and a drive for driving the actuator with a first acceleration and a second acceleration, whereby the actuator adjusts the latching system dependent on acceleration. If the drive accelerates the actuator sufficiently slow, the actuator moves the latching system into a first position. If the drive accelerates the actuator sufficiently quick, the actuator moves the latching system into a second position different from the first position. It is therefore adjusted by the drive dependent on the acceleration. Adjustment takes place quickly and especially conveniently without requiring an excessively large number of components. In particular, bolting and/or opening occurs in a motorized manner.
