Abstract

Air outlet (1) for a passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, comprising a tubular housing (2) having an air inlet opening (3) and an air outlet opening (4) and a flow element (5) which is arranged in the housing (2) and is surrounded by the air when air flows through the housing (2) and which is displaceable in the housing (2) in a flow direction through the housing (2), characterized in that the flow element (5) is displaceable into a closed position closing the air outlet opening (4) and that the air outlet (1) has an air guide device (12) which is adjustable transversely to the flow direction of the housing (2) in the housing (2) so that the ratio of an air volume flowing through the housing (2) on one side of the flow element (5) to an air volume on an opposite side of the flow element (5) changes.
