Battery Housing And Motor Vehicle Comprising A Battery Housing Of This Kind

The invention relates to a battery housing for a battery of an electrically driven motor vehicle, having a tray-shaped receptacle having a housing base and a housing frame, wherein the receptacle forms a housing interior, wherein the housing frame is formed of two rigid longitudinal side profiles and two rigid transverse side profiles, which extend transversely to said longitudinal side profiles, wherein the longitudinal side profiles have a lower profile longitudinal face that faces the housing base and an upper profile longitudinal face that faces away from the housing base, and wherein a deformation profile is formed onto the relevant longitudinal side profile, which deformation profile projects laterally beyond the longitudinal side profile outside the housing in the region of the lower profile longitudinal face. Furthermore, the invention relates to an electrically driven motor vehicle comprising a battery housing of this kind.
