Abstract
A motor vehicle in which a floor of the body is reinforced by reinforcing struts arranged in V shapes, in which a body with a high rigidity is achieved by mounting the rear end-area ends of rear reinforcing struts arranged in a V-shape on a connecting area on the bottom of the vehicle rear end, where the ends of two other rear end-area reinforcing struts that run in a V shape are arranged, and by mounting the rear end area of the two other reinforcing struts so they run obliquely to the rear in the direction of a rear end of the vehicle and obliquely toward the outside in the direction of rear chassis beam members, with the rear ends of the other reinforcing struts being mounted on the rear chassis beam members.
