Abstract

A hybrid component has at least two component portions, which are connected via at least one connection portion. The at least one connection portion extends in a joining direction. A first component portion is formed from a first material which has a first modulus of elasticity, and a second component portion is formed from a second material which has a second modulus of elasticity different from the first modulus of elasticity. The at least one connection portion is designed at least to compensate for a sudden change in rigidity between the two component portions. The at least one connection portion has a rigidity that increases in the joining direction and in the direction of the component portion with the higher modulus of elasticity.
