A joint module for an articulated vehicle, for pivotally interconnecting a first vehicle part and a second vehicle part of the articulated vehicle, the joint module including articulation joint having:



a first segment, connectable to the first vehicle part,
a second segment, connectable to the second vehicle part,
a slewing bearing pivotally coupling the first segment to the second segment, the slewing bearing having an inner ring and an outer ring pivotable with respect to each other about a pivot axis, the pivot axis defining an axial direction of the articulation joint,
the first segment having two first connecting plates spaced apart at a first distance and perpendicular to the axial direction, the outer ring being fixated to the connecting plates therebetween, each of the two first connecting plates having an arc-shaped recess wherein a central axis of the arc-shape of the recess is concentric with the pivot axis, and
the second segment having two second connecting plates spaced apart at a second distance and perpendicular to the axial direction, the second distance being such that the two first connecting plates, at least with a portion thereof between which the outer ring is fixated, extend between the two second connecting plates, and the inner ring being fixated to the second connecting plates therebetween and at the location of the recesses in the first segment and method of manufacturing the same.
