Abstract
A tank for a vehicle having a selective catalytic reduction exhaust gas purification system operating with a reducing agent includes a fuel space for the vehicle fuel and a reducing agent space for the reducing agent. The fuel space and the reducing agent space are combined into a single structural that can be fastened as a whole to the vehicle by brackets on the structural unit. This utilizes the limited space available in any vehicle as efficiently as possible and eliminates the need to provide mounting arrangements for separate fuel and reducing agent tanks.
