Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for an exhaust system of a vehicle. In one example, the exhaust system includes an exhaust tail pipe with an asymmetric outlet. The asymmetric outlet of the tail pipe may flare outwards, away from a central axis of the tail pipe, circumferentially surrounded by a housing with a geometry matching a geometry of the asymmetric outlet.

Abstract: A distributor box for a heating, ventilating and/or air conditioning apparatus for a passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, comprises an air inlet for admitting a heated airflow and/or a cold airflow into the distributor box therethrough, a plurality of air outlets for leading the airflow to different zones of the passenger compartment, and at least one distributor valve pivotally mounted within the distributor box for pivoting movement between a plurality of positions whereby to distribute said airflow between the plurality of outlets. The distributor valve is provided with vane members on at least one face surface thereof for guiding the airflow from the air inlet toward at least one of the air outlets. The vane member is integrally formed on the distributor valve.
