TRACTION BATTERY OF A MOTOR VEHICLE

A traction battery for a motor vehicle includes a plurality of battery modules. The battery modules of the traction battery are electrically coupled by electrical busbars. Each battery module includes a module housing and battery cells accommodated in the respective module housing. The battery cells of each battery module are electrically coupled. At least one thermally conductive body is arranged between the electrical busbars, which are used to electrically couple the battery modules, and an adjoining housing of the traction battery or an adjoining structural component of a body of the motor vehicle or an adjoining module housing of a battery module.
