Front Sidemember Reinforcement: Notes
- The front sidemember structure has been changed to a straight frame structure with an octagon cross section that efficiently absorbs energy from the impact at the time of collision.
- The front sidemember is supported in three directions by the dash crossmember center, dash crossmember lower and front sidemember rear in order to improve the frontal collision characteristics, and increase the vehicle body rigidity.
- The 590-MPa class high tensile strength steel panels have been adopted for the front sidemember extension, front sidemember rear bulkhead and front sidemember rear to improve the body rigidity.
