A hinged joint in vehicle bodies is provided with a first bearing section and a second bearing section. The bearing sections are held together by a bearing pin. In order to be able to produce highly stressed hinged joints in the area of vehicle bodies using simple techniques for easy manufacturing and operational safety, at least one of the joint parts of the joint connection is provided with a low-friction surface coating to reduce the friction.
