The panel 1 has a visible side (2 see fig 2) and a rear side 7, which has at least one free-space portion 8 and at least one fastening portion 9. The panel 1 can be fastened in the fastening portion 9 to a vehicle structure 10 of the vehicle. The instrument panel 1 comprises at least one elastically deformable foam body 3, between the rear and visible sides 3(2), forming elastically deformable regions (12 see fig 2) on the visible side (2). The foam body 3 forms additional elastically deformable regions 13 in the at least one free space portion 8 on the rear side 7. Such properties are important for crash situations. The invention has a reduced number of component parts and is aimed at providing weight and cost advantages, and may include a duct 5.
