This intake system has a raw air inlet , a raw air duct , a filter housing , a filter element , a clean air outlet , a clean air duct and an intake air manifold . The filter element is placed in the filter housing such that the air which flows from the raw air inlet through the raw air duct into the filter housing , must pass through the filter element before it reaches the clean air duct to the intake air manifold . The filter element also has a curvature by which it at least partially follows the contour of a battery box wall of an adjacent battery box . The filter element can be made curved or in multiple parts.
