Outline
• The multi-load path and triple H-shaped structure of distributing the power absorbed at the collision were used for the body shell.
• A ring structure has been adopted for the triple H structure, realizing top-level crash safety performance.
• Crushable structure from which an engine mounting bracket and suspension crossmember are made to secede at the collision is used for the body frame of an engine room.
• The energy absorption space between a bonnet and engine was secured.

Construction
Triple H-shaped structure
-
• An H-shaped structure has been adopted in which reinforcements are equipped in the floor, side frame, and roof, and each connection area is strengthened.
• The combination of these three structural areas provide the strong triple H-shaped structure.
-
• Triple H structure distributes the impulse force at the side collision to reinforcement of the roof, cabin side frame, and floor.
-
• Triple H-shaped structure controls the twisting of the cabin while driving.
Crushable structure
-
• Engine mounting brackets and front suspension crossmember are made to break away during a collision.
Ring structure
-
• For the ring structure, the basic framework is thoroughly straightened.
• For the ring structure, the frames are circularly linked.
Multi-load path
-
• The multi-load path is stabilized during a collision, and has set the load distribution load path which carries out energy absorption.
-
― The front side frame, front B frame and rear side frame are made into straight forms.
― The front side frame is supported by the side sill, front B frame and side member.
