Abstract
A motor vehicle, particularly a passenger car, having an aerodynamically developed underside extending adjacent to the road has wheel houses for the front and rear wheels. In order to, with a good drag coefficient, generate an output that improves the driving behavior of the motor vehicle, inlet ducts are provided at the underside of the motor vehicle, seen in driving direction, in front of the wheel houses of the front and/or rear wheel. The inlet ducts extending upwardly and being open in downward direction and extending at the wheel houses between the wheels. An upper peripheral surface of the inlet ducts is formed by convexly extending shaped sections that lead into the wheel houses.
