Abstract

A motor vehicle battery has at least one battery module with a plurality of battery cells (11) that have connection poles and degassing predetermined breaking points (14). The battery module also has a common battery module control device (19) for all of the battery cells (11) of the battery module. The degassing predetermined breaking points (14) of the battery cells (11) are on one side of the battery module and are offset inward in relation to the connection poles of the battery cells to form a recess (15). A guide element (16) is positioned in the recess (15) and extends along all of the battery cells (11) of the respective battery module to define a degassing channel (17) on one side and defining an accommodation space (18) for the battery module control device (19) on the other side.
