ABSTRACT:
A frontal structure is provided for a motor vehicle. The frontal structure includes, but is not limited to a support structure, to which a radiator is fastened and on which a bumper girder is mounted in front of the radiator in such a manner that it yields backward toward the radiator in case of an impact. The fastening of the radiator to the support structure is formed by a frame, in which the radiator is retained and which is in turn anchored to the support structure via connection elements which detach if a maximum force is exceeded. The frame is adapted to the form of the bumper girder and the radiator to come into contact with the bumper girder earlier than the radiator in case of yielding backward of the bumper girder.
