BODY STRUCTURE


  1. CONSTRUCTION


    1. Body Shell


      1. By optimizing the positioning of body structural members, optimizing the joining methods, and configuring reinforcement members, a lightweight and highly rigid body construction with excellent maneuvering stability has been achieved.


        • For the cowl top outer panel sub-assembly, by positioning the upper support (front suspension support sub-assembly) so it is connected in a straight line, the high lateral rigidity has been ensured, realizing excellent handling stability.

        • By configuring the center frame crossmember sub-assembly between the left and right front side member sub-assemblies, torsional rigidity has been achieved, and superior handing stability has been realized.

        • By configuring braces around the quarter wheel house panel sub-assembly, torsional rigidity has been achieved, and superior handing stability has been realized.

        • To reduce weight, the use of CFRTP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic) has been maximized, allowing a rear frame assembly with ultralight frame construction to be employed.
