ABSTRACT:
A passenger motor vehicle has a spoiler arrangement in the rear area which is formed by a flap integrated into the vehicle body. The flap is movable by an adjusting device from an inoperative position extending approximately flush with the vehicle body shell into a moved-out, operative position, and vice versa. When the spoiled arrangement is in its moved-in, inoperative position, a continuous smooth-surface transition is thereby achieved between the flap and the adjacent body. In the moved-out, operative position, a defined breaking away of the air current passing the fast back is ensured. The spoiler arrangement also has an air current breakaway element which is constructed separately from the flap. The element extends in the transverse direction of the vehicle, in the operative position of the spoiler arrangement, the element extends adjacent to a rear edge of the flap. An upper edge area of the current breakaway element, viewed in a vertical direction, projects by a certain distance beyond an exterior leading surface of the flap.
