  • Patent number: 10399614
    Abstract: A motor vehicle tail gate panel has one side facing the inside of the motor vehicle and one side facing the outside of the motor vehicle and including a box having an adhesion area on the side facing the outside of the motor vehicle for adhering a glass to the surface of the box. The box extends beyond the adhesion area on the side opposite this area so as to form at least one section that is visible from the outside of the motor vehicle, and the section has a shape that enhances the aerodynamics of the motor vehicle. As a result, additional spoilers may not be needed, which improves productivity and reduces production costs. Example embodiments also relate to a motor vehicle that includes the tail gate panel.
