Underbody cladding for a two-track motor vehicle and two-track motor vehicle with such an underbody cladding

A component for a two-track motor vehicle having wheel-controlling links as part of a rear axle, comprising:

• an underbody cladding for cladding an underbody at least on one vehicle side in a region of the wheel-controlling links of the rear axle such that, when in an installed state on the two-track motor vehicle, the underbody cladding extends under the wheel-controlling links at least partially in a substantially horizontal plane and, at least in a direction of an outer side of the vehicle, extends close to an inner side of a rear wheel of the motor vehicle, the rear wheel being connected via a wheel support to the wheel-controlling links, wherein
• the underbody cladding is divided in a vehicle longitudinal direction into three sections comprising a front section, a central section and a rear section,
• the central section extends under the wheel-controlling links on one vehicle side, and is connected at least over a part of a width of the central section to one or both of the front section and the rear section,
• the central section is configured such that, in the installed state installed on the motor vehicle, the central section at least partially follows and/or at least partially yields to a substantial vertical movement of the wheel-controlling links during driving operation of the motor vehicle,
• the front section and the rear section of the underbody cladding are configured to be arranged positionally statically on the motor vehicle such that, when in the installed state, the front and rear sections do not follow and/or yield to the substantial vertical movement of the wheel-controlling links.
