Abstract
A brake system for a motor vehicle may comprise an actuating device, in particular a brake pedal, a pressure supply device, in particular a hydraulic piston-cylinder unit driven by an electric motor driven, for hydraulically adjusting a brake piston of at least one wheel brake, wherein the pressure supply device works in particular on wheel brakes of the front axle of the motor vehicle, and having at least one electromechanically actuatable wheel brake, for electrically adjusting a brake piston of the wheel brake, in particular for the rear wheels of the motor vehicle. For electromechanically actuating the wheel brake, an electric motor and a first transmission, which transmits the driving force of the motor to a further transmission, in particular a ball-screw transmission, are provided. One or more (hydraulic and/or electric) components or subsystems of the brake system are designed to have at least one layer of redundancy.
