ABSTRACT:
An underbody for a motor vehicle has side rails with inclined portions and parallel sills and a floor panel joined by a transverse support arrangement which is spaced apart from the side rails for acoustic decoupling. In order to form positive interlocks in the case of a crash-induced offset of the inclined side rail portions, the transverse support arrangement has projections that become engaged in corresponding recesses in stiffening plates attached to the inclined side rail portions.
