A floor assembly for an electrically operable motor vehicle includes a vehicle floor, which runs on top of an energy storage device for driving the vehicle, has at least one floor element, and to which a side sill is attached on each outer side. In order to ensure that the energy storage device below the vehicle floor is protected against excessive damage in the event of a crash, in particular a side-impact crash, a first, outer, deformation zone of the floor assembly is provided in the region of the side sills, with the energy storage device being arranged at a distance from the first, outer deformation zone in the transverse direction of the vehicle so as to form a second, inner, deformation zone. The first, outer, deformation zone is deformable under a lower load level than the second, inner, deformation zone.
