Abstract

An exhaust gas aftertreatment system with an exhaust gas inlet, at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements, and a flow chamber. The exhaust gas inlet, the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements, and the flow chamber are arranged relative to one another and fluidically connected together such that exhaust gas flowing through the exhaust gas inlet into the flow chamber can be distributed to the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements. The exhaust gas passes through at least one first of the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements along a first flow direction, and the exhaust gas passes through at least one second of the at least two exhaust gas aftertreatment elements along a second flow direction, wherein the first flow direction and the second flow direction are oriented at least diagonally to each other, preferably anti-parallel to each other.
