In order to improve an impact-absorbing crossmember which is mountable under a bumper unit of a vehicle body on a vehicle rear thereof, wherein the crossmember extends in a transverse direction running approximately parallel to the bumper unit and has support elements arranged at the ends for support on support regions of the vehicle rear, and wherein the support elements are connected to one another by a central unit of the crossmember, in such a way that the crossmember can be produced as simply as possible and thus as cost-effectively as possible, it is proposed that the central unit has a box-shaped structure comprising wall elements and that at least one of the wall elements of the box-shaped structure has extensions which extend in one piece from the box-shaped structure into the support elements and form a structural element of the support elements.
