1. A connector arrangement for connecting heatable fluid lines, the connector arrangement comprising: at least one first coupling component and at least one second coupling component, the first coupling component being connectable to the second coupling component, the first coupling component and the second coupling component each include at least one first fluid line, at least one first fluid line interface, at least one first electrical conductor, and at least one first electrical interface, wherein the first fluid line interfaces and the first electrical interfaces are oriented parallel to an axis of insertion of the first coupling component and the second coupling component, and at least one of the first coupling component and the second coupling component includes at least one fluid line splitter, and the second coupling component including at least one second fluid line, wherein at least one of the first fluid line or the second fluid line is connected to the fluid line splitter in a unitary manner.
