Abstract: A battery box for an electric vehicle includes a trough-shaped part made of sheet metal, comprising a bottom floor portion which extends horizontally, lateral wall portions are arranged on both sides in the transverse direction (Y) extending in the upward direction therefrom. An internal sheet metal part is arranged between the wall portions and connected to the trough-shaped part and has floor portions facing the bottom floor portion as well as at least one ridged portion protruding relative to the floor portions and connected in one piece to at least one of the floor portions and extending in the transverse direction (Y), wherein at least one of the floor portions is spaced apart horizontally at least in some regions from the bottom floor portion so that a first intermediate space is formed therebetween.

Abstract: Bodywork arrangement comprising longitudinal members and cross-members that are connected at node points to other lateral structural elements to form part of a passenger compartment and part of a vehicle front end. Longitudinal members are provided at the lower side of the passenger compartment. Front-end longitudinal members are arranged on the vehicle front end. A front region of the passenger compartment has a floor cross-member, a splashboard cross-member, an armature cross-member and laterally arranged A-column elements. The floor cross-member together with the splashboard cross-member and two lateral structural elements form a lower trapezoidal structure. The splashboard cross-member together with the armature cross-member (9) and two lateral structural elements forms an upper trapezoidal structure. The space between the upper trapezoidal structure and the lower trapezoidal structure defines the foot space of the passenger compartment.
