Abstract: The invention relates to a pedal system for a motor vehicle comprising a displacement sensor. Said sensor is used for determining the angular position of a foot pedal (1) and is provided as an inductive sensor which comprises a stationary coil part (3) and a metal part (4) that is displaced with the foot pedal (1). The distance of the metal part (4) from the coil part (3) alters the electric relationships from which corresponding measured values can be derived. This results in reducing the production complexity of the pedal system and in improving the functional reliability of the sensor.
