BODY STRUCTURE


  1. CONSTRUCTION


    1. High-rigidity Urethane Sealant


      1. A high-rigidity urethane sealant is used to adhere the windshield glass to the vehicle to improve body rigidity and ensure excellent driving stability.

    2. Windshield Header Panel and Roof Reinforcement


      1. Along with the use of high-tensile strength sheet steel, the inner windshield header panel is structured with closed cross-sections, thus ensuring superior roof strength.

      2. A hot-stamped sheet steel are used the center cross reinforcement and the center cross reinforcement extension of sliding roof unit, thus ensuring superior roof strength.

    3. Cowl Top Panel


      1. The edges of the cowl top panel outer have been straightened and the rigidity of the left and right sides have been improved by making the cowl top panel outer which connects the left and right sides a closed cross-section.

      2. Furthermore, by using thick plate for the cowl body mounting reinforcement LH and cowl body mounting reinforcement RH which connect the front suspension tower and cowl top panel outer, the rigidity of the connection is improved and superior stability is achieved.

    4. Floor panel


      1. A deck board stay is used to connect the left and right rear wheel house inner panel, improving lateral rigidity and handling stability.

    5. Quarter Pillar


      1. In order to realize a high body rigidity and lightweight, it was placed reasonably quarter pillar reinforcement.

      2. Back door opening reinforcement in the pillar suppresses the left and right vibration of the wheel house due to the input from the floor panel.
