Abstract

The invention relates to a motor vehicle (1), comprising several vehicle wheels (2), each wheel having a rim (3) and a tire (4). According to the invention, a distance measuring device (5) comprising at least one sensor (6) and an indicating device (8) is arranged in the passenger compartment. The at least one sensor is designed in such a way that the at least one sensor detects a distance between at least one of the rims (3) and an adjacent obstacle, in particular a curb (9), and transmits a corresponding signal to the indicating device (8). Said indicating device (8) is designed in such a way that it produces at least one warning signal when a predefined distance between at least one rim (3) and the adjacent obstacle is reached or fallen below. A sensor (6) of the distance measuring device (5) is arranged on the vehicle wheel (2) and at least one sensor (6) is designed as an RFID chip.

Claims

1. A motor vehicle having multiple vehicle wheels which have in each case one wheel rim and one tire, and having at least one exterior rear-view mirror,

characterized in that

a distance measurement device is provided, having at least one sensor and having a display device arranged in the passenger compartment, wherein the at least one sensor is designed so as to detect a distance between at least one of the wheel rims and an adjacent obstacle, in particular a curb, and to transmit a corresponding signal to the display device, and wherein the display device is designed to generate a warning signal at least when a predefined distance between at least one wheel rim and the adjacent obstacle is reached or undershot,

a sensor of the distance measurement device is arranged on the vehicle wheel,

at least one sensor is in the form of an RFID chip.
