The invention relates to a vehicle body having a cross-member (4) and having at least one longitudinal member (6) of a motor vehicle. According to the invention, the aim of providing a vehicle body that ensures improved load absorption in the event of collisions with a slight overlap, wherein the deformability of the body is not significantly impaired in the event of full-area collisions, is achieved in that means (8, 10, 20) for absorbing collision energy are provided for the at least one longitudinal member (6), which means ensure that the load path is transferred into the at least one longitudinal member (6) selectively in the event of a collision with a slight overlap, wherein form-closure means (8, 10, 20) are provided, which form a form closure in the direction of the longitudinal member in the event of a collision. |
