Air vent (10) for use in a vehicle, comprising: a housing (12) and an air duct (14), defined by the housing (12) and having an air inlet end (16) and an air outlet end (18), wherein an air flow, flowing through the air duct (14), can flow from the air inlet end (16) to the air outlet end (18) along a main direction of flow; at least one front air guide element (26), which is disposed at the air outlet end 18) in the air duct (14) and which is adjustable about a front axis of rotation (V1) relative to the main direction of flow (L); at least one rear air guide element (32, 34), which is disposed in the main direction of flow upstream of the front air guide element (26) in the air duct (14) and which is adjustable about a rear axis of rotation (H1, H2) relative to the main direction of flow;a control element (40), which is coupled to the at least one front air guide element (26) and to the at least one rear air guide element (32, 34) in such a way that by means of a movement of the control element (40) along a direction of motion (B1, B2), the front air guide element (26) can be rotated about the front axis of rotation (V1) and the rear air guide element (32, 34), about the rear axis of rotation (H1, H2). The air vent provided by the invention makes it possible to achieve reliable air deflection in all directions in a compact construction.
