SIDE STRUCTURE

• The rear suspension spring assembling area 

(spring house reinforcement, spring house 
bracket plate, and spring house bracket) was 
placed in a lower position to improve front, rear, 
left and right direction rigidity and improve driving 
safety.

• Torsional rigidity was heightened and driving sta-

bility was improved by bonding the side outer 
panel and pillar reinforcement (front pillar rein-
forcement upper or rear pillar reinforcement 
upper) with the inner panel (side roof rail inner or 
quarter inner panel).

SIDE STRUCTURE REINFORCEMENT

1. A reinforcement was added in the front pillar. This 

suppresses the level of deformation of the door 
opening and recession of the deck crossmember 
upon front impact and offset impact. The design 
is also expected to improve passenger rescuabil-
ity and to minimize the level of injuries.

2. An uneven thickness steel sheet* in which the 

sheet thickness is thinner on the side sill side was 

employed for the centre pillar reinforcement to 

ensure safety upon side impact and lightweight-

ness.

3. The side sill outer reinforcement section was 

designed with large form, to suppress cabin 

deformation and improve safety upon impact.

NOTE: *: A steel sheet of varying thickness that is 

welded into one steel sheet.
