Abstract

The disclosure relates to a motor vehicle lock arrangement for a closure element which is movably coupled to a motor vehicle body, wherein a motor vehicle lock is provided, which in the mounted state is arranged on the closure element or on the motor vehicle body. It is proposed that a servo drive is provided for exerting a driving force on the closure element in its opening direction, so that the closure element can be moved in a motorized positioning process from a closed position into a gap position, and in this way an engagement gap can be created between closure element and motor vehicle body.
