  "textContent": "A bumper cross member for a motor vehicle, having a crossmember extending transversely to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle, and two crashboxes connected thereto and designed as hollow chamber sections. Each crashbox is connected with its end facing away from the vehicle to the crossmember in a respective end section thereof, and may be connected, with its end facing the vehicle, to a structural component of the vehicle. The crashboxes are supported with their end faces only in sections on the rear side of the crossmember, in particular such that the support is continuous or at least substantially continuous either in the upper and lower end-face areas, or in the two lateral end-face areas, while support of the other end-face areas is provided only in sections or absent. The distance between the end-face areas of the crashboxes, which are unsupported on the crossmember, is set from the rear side of the crossmember, such that only after a first phase of energy absorption with deformation of the crashbox is the end face facing the crossmember supported over its whole surface on the rear side of the crossmember.",
