The invention relates to a variable turbine geometry ( 28 ) of an exhaust gas turbocharger ( 2 ) of a motor vehicle, with a fixed guide blade ring ( 20 ) and an axially moveable control blade ring ( 15 ), wherein an axial relative position of guide blades ( 21 ) of the guide blade ring ( 20 ) to control blades ( 15 ) of the control blade ring ( 13 ) defines the size of inflow cross sections to a turbine wheel ( 11 ) of the exhaust gas turbocharger ( 2 ), and wherein the guide blades ( 21 ) and the control blades ( 15 ) extend in directions opposite to each other as far as to their respective free ends ( 18 ) and the control blades ( 15 ) are arranged on a cross carrier of the control blade ring ( 13 ), which as a function of the axial relative position opens, partially opens or closes additional inflow paths ( 29 ) for the enlargement or the reduction of the inflow cross sections. Furthermore, an exhaust gas turbocharger ( 2 ) with such a variable turbine geometry ( 28 ) as well as a method for the control of the inflow of an exhaust gas turbine with such a variable turbine geometry is proposed.
