Abstract
A subassembly for the front and rear region of a motor vehicle, which comprises two longitudinal members to which a subframe designed as assembly carrier is attached by one end region of two elongate carrier parts. The members are together used for energy absorption in the case of a vehicle impact and are fixed by their ends, which project as far as a passenger compartment, with laterally spaced longitudinal members reinforcing the latter at the vehicle floor. After they have been fixed on the longitudinal members, the carrier parts extend freely with a portion oriented approximately in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle towards the passenger compartment and are guided with an obtuse-angled bend about a vertical axis towards the respective proximate longitudinal member and attached to the latter. Near to the bend, these carrier parts are connected in the longitudinally oriented portion by a subframe cross member.
