Abstract: A motor vehicle is provided having a towing lug at a front end of the motor vehicle. The towing lug is directly accessible. A longitudinal axis of the towing lug is arranged substantially vertical or downward at an angle, such that a free end of the towing lug, at which a lug section of the towing lug is formed, points downward in the direction of a roadway.

Abstract: In a method of producing a crash management system for a vehicle having at least one first cross-member, two crash absorbing components connected to the first cross member, a second cross-member is further integrated with the first cross-member, an extruded profile of closed or semi-closed configuration is cut to size and slit at locations where sections of the profile are to be separated. The sections are bent to a designed shape, and fixation mounts are subsequently provided in the profile.

Abstract: A motor-vehicle bumper assembly has a transverse rigid and U-shaped rail having an inner wall closely juxtaposed in a normal motor-vehicle travel direction with a frame of a motor vehicle, an outer wall spaced farther from the frame than the inner wall, and a horizontal wall extending between the inner and outer walls. Two crush cans spaced transversely apart support the rail on the motor-vehicle frame. Each can has a first U-section element extending in the direction and having an inner end fixed to the frame and an outer end fixed to the inner rail wall and a second U-section element nested with and mostly vertically offset from the respective first element and having an inner end fixed to the frame and an outer end extending past the inner rail wall. An outer mounting plate is fixed to the second-element outer end and to the outer rail wall.
