Abstract
The interior of the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle is provided on its outer limiting surfaces with heat insulating materials, preferably to such an extent that a complete heat insulation is achieved. Such a complete heat insulation makes considerable and weight and energy savings possible when using heating and/or air conditioning systems in vehicles, and a corresponding reduction of pollutant emissions. The ecological effect of this measure is particularly reinforced if renewable raw materials are used as heating insulation materials, either alone or combined with plastics into composite materials in the individual areas of the motor vehicle. By appropriately designing and sizing the heat insulating measures, they can also lead to additional improvements are regards weight, mechanical stability and sound insulation, besides the actual heat insulating effect, substantially improving the usability and ecological compatibility of the motor vehicle.
