Outline
• A straight structure has been adopted which is both highly rigid and light.
• A multi-load path structure has been adopted which assures a high level of impact safety.
• A ring structure has been adopted which improves the overall rigidity.

Construction
Straight structure
-
• The straight shape of the frame creates a continuous configuration from the front to the rear.
-
• For sections of the frame that still require some curvature, continuous bonding with the horizontal frame was implemented to make the structure a closed section to the maximum extent possible.
Multi-load path structure
-
• The impact force if the vehicle is involved in a collision is absorbed very efficiently by distributing the impact in multiple directions.
Ring structure
-
• Four ring structures have been created for the upper body including the roof rail and B-pillar, and the entire reinforcement area of the underbody.
• By creating a ring structure, cabin deformation control has been improved.
Fail-safe
• Function not equipped.
