BONNET
id091000026200
Purpose, Function
• The bonnet has slits to reduce injury to pedestrians in a collision.
Construction
• By adopting slits to the bonnet inner, rigidity between the slits is lowered and the bonnet crushes easily when impact is applied. The bonnet crushes and absorbs impact to pedestrians in a collision.
• By positioning the bonnet stiffener reinforcement at the front of the bonnet inner, impact to a pedestrian during a collision is absorbed preventing the pedestrian from contacting the bonnet striker and body.
Fail-safe
• Not applicable
