A vehicle door handle with a handle component is provided. The handle component includes a hollow body, and an inductive sensor device is arranged in a cavity in order to detect an actuation of the handle component. A support having a support fastening section and a self-supporting section connected to the latter are arranged in the cavity, wherein the support fastening section is secured to the vehicle door handle, and wherein the self-supporting section of the support extends in the interior of the cavity at a distance from the wall surfaces of the handle component such that the self-supporting section of the support is mechanically decoupled from the wall surfaces of the handle component. The inductive sensor device is held in the self-supporting section, wherein a metallic material is arranged in at least one section of those wall surfaces of the handle component which surround the self-supporting section.
