Abstract: A bumper system with a bumper beam and two crash boxes, and two intermediate elements, wherein the intermediate elements have a first wall and a second wall that are arranged such that, from the perspective of direction x, the first wall points toward the exterior of the vehicle and the second wall points toward the interior of the vehicle, wherein walls are linked to each other at their one end in direction y, and wherein the linked ends point toward the exterior of the vehicle. The walls continue to be connected to at least one first support wall. The intermediate elements are arranged in the bumper system so that, in the event of a force striking the bumper beam in direction x, the intermediate element is deformed first and thereafter the crash box assigned to the intermediate element is subsequently deformed.
