摘要

Motor vehicle with safety device has supportive gas-pressure spring element (46), available for tilting up front hood (3) from closed position to open position, which is pivotably supported with first coupling point (51) provided at gas-pressure spring element, which is at first bearing point (53) that is assigned to vehicle base (2). It is supported at the second bearing point (54). The gas pressure spring element moves relative to other gas pressure element (47) with a second coupling point (52) which is assigned at the second bearing (54), which is pivotally supported at front hood. At least one of the coupling points is decoupled from the vehicle component assigned at the bearing point by activating lifting means in such a way that by raising the front hood to its safety position, a relative motion of the vertical component is made possible between the vehicle component and the decoupled coupling point.
