Mudflap with overlapping inclined louvers

A mudflap for a vehicle, the mudflap being arranged substantially in a vertical position in a normal use condition, where the mudflap is configured to be attached to a support in the vehicle, a front side being oriented toward a wheel, and a rear side oriented away from the wheel;

• wherein the mudflap comprises a left upright and a right upright;
• wherein the mudflap comprises:
• a plurality of louvers, extending substantially horizontally in the normal use condition;
• each louver having a first longitudinal end fixedly attached to the left upright and a second longitudinal end fixedly attached to the right upright;
• each louver comprising a first louver portion having a leading free edge at a front side thereof, and a second louver portion, the second louver portion extending continuously from the first louver portion, at a rear side of the first louver portion, the second louver portion being delimited by a trailing free edge;
• wherein the first louver portion is inclined with regard to a horizontal direction by a first angle, the first angle being comprised between 30° and 65°;
• wherein the second louver portion is inclined with regard to the first louver portion by a second angle, the second angle being comprised between 5° and 85°;
• and
• wherein for a couple of adjacent louvers, with one upper louver and one lower louver, the trailing free edge of the upper louver is located below the leading free edge of the lower louver, and wherein the mudflap exhibits a louver overlapping ratio H2/H1 comprised between 10% and 30%, where H1 is a vertical offset distancing the upper louver and the lower louver of the couple of adjacent louvers, and H2 denotes a vertical distance separating the trailing free edge of the upper louver and the leading free edge of the lower louver.
