Abstract
A motor vehicle front end has a heat exchanger and a cooling-air mechanism for controlling a supply of air to the heat exchanger. The cooling-air mechanism includes: a downwardly opening air inlet opening; and an air flap, which corresponds to the air inlet opening, and which, at its top edge, is articulatable on a body part in a pivotable manner via a pivot joint. The air flap is configured such that, in its closed position, it closes off the air inlet opening, and in its operative position, it opens up the air inlet opening, and as seen in a direction of travel of the motor vehicle, is situated in front of the air inlet opening.
