VEHICLE COMPRISING AN ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE VEHICLE PART THAT CAN BE USED AS A RESISTOR ELEMENT FOR CONVERTING ELECTRICAL ENERGY INTO HEAT

The invention relates to a vehicle, preferably a commercial vehicle, a tour coach or a city bus. The electrically drivable vehicle () comprises an electric machine () that can be operated as a generator, an accumulator for electrical energy (), an electrically conductive vehicle part, and a control device (). The accumulator for electrical energy () is designed to receive electrical energy () from the electric machine () and/or to deliver electrical energy () to the electric machine (). The control device () is designed, when at least one predetermined energy-dissipation condition is met, to divert electrical energy () generated when the electric machine () is being operated as a generator to the electrically conductive vehicle part for conversion into thermal energy, wherein the electrically conductive vehicle part is a vehicle frame () and/or a vehicle body () and/or a bodywork ().
