Abstract
A vehicle is provided with a heating device. The heating device includes an electrically driven heat source and a reflector configured to reflect heat radiation emitted by the heat source in the direction of a passenger compartment of the vehicle. The vehicle further includes a contact protection device which is permeable to radiation so that heat radiation reflected by the reflector or emitted by the heat source radiates into the passenger compartment. The heat source and the reflector are arranged on one side of the contact protection device, and the side is averted from the passenger compartment.
