1. A motor vehicle body comprising:
an air-guiding device formed in a rear-end region of the motor vehicle body, the air-guiding device being settable into a first operating position and a second operating position; and
a trailer coupling mounting device that is adjustable into a rest position and into an active position, and wherein the trailer coupling mounting device, in at least the rest position, is at least partially covered with respect to surroundings by the air-guiding device,
wherein for positioning the trailer coupling mounting device into the active position, the air-guiding device is first settable into the second operating position and, after or together with positioning the air-guiding device into the second operating position, the trailer coupling mounting device is configured to be movable along a body vertical axis (Z) of the motor vehicle body,
wherein the air-guiding device has a pivoting-movement kinematic mechanism by means of which said air-guiding device is settable into the operating positions,
wherein the trailer coupling mounting device has a linear-movement kinematic mechanism by means of which said trailer coupling mounting device is linearly translatable along the body vertical axis (Z) between the rest position and the active position.
