Abstract
A battery for a motor vehicle has a battery wall that encloses a battery interior, an extinguishing agent reservoir situated in the battery interior, in which an extinguishing agent is accommodated, and at least one battery cell that is situated in the battery interior separate from the extinguishing agent. The extinguishing agent reservoir has a reservoir wall for retaining the extinguishing agent, and the reservoir wall has a first wall temperature at a normal operating temperature of the battery cell and has a second wall temperature at a limiting operating temperature of the battery cell. The reservoir wall is designed to maintain sealtightness for retaining the extinguishing agent at the first wall temperature and to be destroyed by the heat at the second wall temperature. The second wall temperature is greater than the first wall temperature, and the reservoir wall may be brought to the second wall temperature by means of the battery cell of the battery. A motor vehicle has an electric motor and a battery according to the invention.
