A motor vehicle front section of a motor vehicle includes a first spatial region, a second spatial region formed separately from the first spatial region, a first cover that covers the first spatial region, and a second cover that covers the second spatial region. The first cover extends substantially over a width of the motor vehicle front section, and the second cover extends substantially over the width of the motor vehicle front section. The first cover is arranged in front of or behind the second cover in a vehicle longitudinal direction. An access is provided in at least one of the covers for at least one connection arranged underneath the cover.

Rooflight or window 1 for vehicles, particularly for a recreational vehicle, comprising a window frame 2, the window frame 2 comprises a ventilation path allowing air exchange between the inside and the outside of the vehicle, wherein the window frame 2 comprises ventilation slots 4, 5 at least at a surface 8 of the window frame 2 facing the inside of the vehicle, wherein the rooflight or window 1 further comprises a cover 3 being connected to the window frame 2 and covering the surface 8 of the window frame 2 facing the inside of the vehicle, wherein along the outer edge of the window frame 2 a circumferential gap 9 is present between the window frame 2 and the cover 3 functioning as a canal for ventilation air.

A vehicle defogging and demisting system includes an air handling system, a first humidity sensor adjacent a second row vehicle window, a second humidity sensor adjacent a third row vehicle window and a controller. The controller is configured to defog and demist the second row window in response to a first data stream received from the first humidity sensor and the third row vehicle window in response to a second data stream received from the second humidity sensor. A method of defogging and demisting second and third row vehicle windows of a motor vehicle is also provided.

A heating system for a windshield of a vehicle, in which a fan unit is configured to produce a hot air flow at the inner side of the windshield. In order to enable efficient heating of a windshield of an electric vehicle, there is provision for the heating system to have an at least predominantly transparent partition unit, which in a shielding position is secured in the vehicle in such a manner that it is arranged in the longitudinal vehicle direction between at least a predominant portion of the windshield and an inner region which is provided for passengers, whereby the hot air flow can be guided at least partially in a heating region between the windshield and the partition unit.

An air vent is mounted in a vehicle window frame. The air vent includes a one-piece body having an interior face and an exterior face. A passive ventilation feature includes an air pathway that extends between a first opening in the interior face to a second opening in the exterior face. A forced air ventilation feature is carried by the body. The forced air ventilation feature includes a ventilation fan, an exhaust outlet and a closure for the exhaust outlet that is displaceable between open and closed positions.

A volatile organic compound purge system is provided for a motor vehicle. The purge system includes a blower and a computing device. The computing device is configured to operate in a shipping mode whereby the blower is periodically operated to draw fresh air into and purge volatile organic compounds from an interior of the motor vehicle as the motor vehicle is being shipped from a first point to a second point.

A windshield for a utility or off-road all terrain vehicle includes a plurality of slits through a bottom center of the windshield body. A slide plate with corresponding slits is slidably attached to the windshield body. The slide plate is formed of the same transparent or translucent material as the windshield body, but is not as thick and the windshield body and is not hardened. Fasteners are fixed to the windshield body and extend through slide slots in the slide plate, enabling a throw of the slide plate of at least the width of the slits. A spacer or seal strip is positioned between the windshield body and the slide plate.

A vehicle that comprises a passenger compartment comprising a plurality of door openings. The vehicle also includes a plurality of selectively openable and closable doors movably disposed in the door openings. The vehicle also includes a selectively openable and closable vent duct. The vehicle further includes a controller configured to selectively open and close the selectively openable and closable vent duct, the controller configured to control an open condition of the vent duct during a door close event or a door open event of one of the doors. The vehicle may use the controller to sense the door close event or the door open event for at least one of the doors and a vehicle state; determine whether an opening of a predetermined first cross-sectional area exists in that state; and if not, use the controller to control the open condition thereby providing the predetermined first cross-sectional area by opening the vent duct.

An air vent is mounted in a vehicle window frame. The air vent includes a one-piece body having an interior face and an exterior face. An air pathway extends between a first opening in the interior face to a second opening in the exterior face. An elongated window channel is also provided in the body for receiving the window over which the air vent is mounted.
