Abstract

An exhaust system, for a vehicle driven by an internal combustion engine, has a system for removing condensate (141) that includes a first line section (110) for fluid connection with exhaust gas (160), at least one second line section (120) for fluid connection with exhaust gas (160), and at least one suction line (130; 131; 132; 136; 137; 138). The suction line (130; 131; 132; 136; 137; 138) is disposed between the bottom (124) of the at least one second line section (120) and the first line section (110), and includes an opening (135) configured to be passed over by exhaust gas (160) passing through the first line section (110).
