Steering column assembly

A steering column assembly (10) for a vehicle, with

• a bearing element (12) fixed to the vehicle and a sleeve element (14) mounted thereon, through which a steering spindle (20) extends,
• an electric steering column adjustment (18) with an adjustment part (26) by which the sleeve element (14) can be adjusted in an axial direction (Z) relative to the bearing element (12),
• an energy absorption device (16) coupled to the bearing element (12) and to the sleeve element (14) and having an elongate absorption part (36) and a reducing part (34) having a passage (40) for the absorption part (36) through which the absorption part (36) extends and which has a smaller cross-section than an end section (50) of the absorption part (36),
• wherein the bearing and sleeve elements (12, 14) are coupled so as to be longitudinally displaceable relative to one another in an event of a vehicle crash in such a way that a relative longitudinal movement between the absorption part (36) and the reducing part (34) can take place, wherein the end section (50) is plastically deformed in cross-section through the passage (40) of smaller cross-section as a result of the longitudinal movement and a tensile force applied to the absorption part (36),
• wherein the absorption part (36) is fixedly coupled to the sleeve element (14),
• wherein the energy absorption device (16) has a holder (32) for the reducing part (34) which fixedly couples the reducing part (34) with the bearing element (12), wherein the adjustment part (26) is permanently rigidly fastened to the holder (32).
