The present invention aims to provide a sound-absorbing material having sound absorption performance with an average sound absorption coefficient of 0.65 or more in the frequency domain of 800 to 2000 Hz. The present invention relates to a sound-absorbing material including: a fiber layer including a plurality of holes open to a surface thereof and having a thickness of 3 mm or more; and an inorganic material layer formed on the surface of the fiber layer, the holes being blind holes each penetrating through the inorganic material layer and having a bottom inside the fiber layer.

An exhaust finisher assembly for a vehicle includes an exhaust finisher and a deflector. The exhaust finisher is configured to be connected to a rear bumper fascia of the vehicle. The deflector is connected to the exhaust finisher. The deflector includes a first portion connected to the exhaust finisher and a second portion extending outwardly from the first portion.

Electric vehicle having a chassis, which supports a pair of front wheels and a pair of rear wheels, a passenger compartment, which is arranged between the front wheels and the rear wheels, at least one electric motor connected to drive wheels, an electric energy storage device, an air conditioning system, which is designed to air condition the passenger compartment by heating or cooling the air present in the passenger compartment, and a control unit, which is configured to activate the air conditioning system even when the vehicle is parked and connected to an external charging system, wherein the air conditioning system has at least one thermal device, which is designed to exchange heat directly and only with the chassis and the control unit is configured to activate the thermal device even when the vehicle is parked and connected to an external charging system.

The apparatus for fastening a vehicle component in and/or on a vehicle has a sound insulation element with a carrier layer and a sound absorbing layer. An anchoring recess is formed in the carrier layer and has an insertion opening in a first side of the carrier layer, which insertion opening is adjoined by a receiving space which is delimited by the plastic material of the carrier layer and is defined by a closed circumferential inner side and a closed bottom surface. An anchoring element is further provided. The anchoring recess has a constriction area formed on the circumferential inner side and at least partially narrowing the receiving space, with a widened widening area adjoining in the direction of the bottom surface. The anchoring element has an anchoring shoulder for engaging behind the constriction area when the anchoring element is received by the anchoring recess.
