A MOTOR VEHICLE WITH A REAR END MOUNTED BATTERY BOX

摘要

The invention concerns a motor vehicle comprising a frame chassis (1) including two longitudinal beams (2, 3) and at least a first and second cross members (4, 5) between said two longitudinal beams (2, 3), and a battery box (6) arranged at the rear end of the vehicle between said beams (2, 3) with vibration damping mounting means (7, 8), wherein the mounting means of the battery box (6) comprises front mounting means (7) connecting the front side of the battery box (6) to the first adjacent cross member (4) and rear mounting means (8) connecting the rear side opposing said front side of the battery box (6) to the second adjacent cross member (5). By suspending the battery box from the cross members (4, 5) of the chassis frame (1), the mounting brackets (7, 8) do not collide with other components that must be accommodated in or mounted on the longitudinal chassis beams (2, 3). Moreover, the battery support system according to the invention provides an advantage in terms of space.
