A hood for a motor vehicle includes a framework base having a length extension along a first axis and a width extension along a second axis orthogonal to the first axis, a covering panel for at least partially covering a portion of the framework base, and fixing means for fixing the covering panel to said portion, such that the covering panel at least partially covers the portion, the fixing means being provided with a base element carried by the covering panel in a fixed position relative to the covering panel, and a register element coupled to the base element in a movable manner along a third axis transverse to a plane comprising the first and the second axis, wherein the register element has an end that is farther from the base element along the third axis and faces the framework base, the end being adapted to abut against the framework base along the third axis.

An embodiment is a vehicle body rear connection structure including a chassis frame, a rear vehicle body assembly with a rear mounting portion connected to the chassis frame, and a rear end module assembled with the rear vehicle body assembly in a length direction of the vehicle body and the rear end module with an end module mounting portion connected with the rear mounting portion, the rear end module including a rear protruded portion configured to provide bolting engagement with the rear vehicle body assembly in a vertical direction of the vehicle body, and a forward protruded portion configured to be bolted to the rear vehicle body assembly in the vehicle body length direction.

The present disclosure relates to a body and doors protection assembly for a vehicle, a hood assembly comprising such a body and doors protection assembly, a vehicle comprising such a hood assembly and a manufacturing method for such a body and doors protection assembly.

The body and doors protection assembly comprises a first protecting member, a second protecting member and a sliding member. The first protecting member is attachable on an inner surface of a vehicle hood at a rear edge of the vehicle hood. The second protecting member is attachable in a front side portion of a vehicle body facing the rear edge of the vehicle hood in a closed position of the vehicle hood. The sliding member is at least partially enclosed in the second protecting member and configured to contact the first protecting member in the closed position of the vehicle hood. The sliding member is movable in a lateral direction relative to the vehicle hood in the closed position of the vehicle hood.

There are provided a cowl provided to support a front windshield in an inclined state where a rear side of the front windshield is located at a higher level than a front side of the front windshield and forming a lower edge of an opening portion for arranging the front windshield and a bonnet provided in front of and above the cowl. An upper portion of the cowl comprises a first face portion to which the front windshield adheres and an inclined second face portion which extends obliquely rearwardly-and-downwardly from the first face portion, and a front end of the first face portion is positioned on a rearward side, in a vehicle longitudinal direction, of a rear end of the bonnet.

An airflow adjusting apparatus includes two or more airflow generators and a controller. The airflow generators are arranged in first and second directions along a surface of an object. The airflow generators are configured to generate respective airflows in parallel directions parallel along the surface of the object. The second direction intersects with the first direction. The controller is configured to control outputs from the respective airflow generators independently of each other. The controller is configured to cause a total output from the airflow generators in a first group to be greater than a total output of the airflow generators in a second group. The airflow generators in the first and the second groups are arranged side by side in an airflow generation direction. The airflow generators in the second group are adjacent to those in the first group.
