Abstract
Back of a motor vehicle with a rear hatch, a rear hatch opening and a device for moving the rear hatch of a motor vehicle between a closed position and an intermediate position. The device has positioning means by which the rear hatch can be moved solely by linear translation between the intermediate position and the closed position. In the intermediate position, the opening edge and the rear hatch edge as a whole have an essentially constant distance from one another. For closing the rear hatch from the open position, the rear hatch is pivoted out of the open position into the intermediate position, and afterwards, linear displacement of the rear hatch out of the intermediate position into the closed position is performed, the linear displacement taking place over a path from 1 cm to 5 cm.
