|
|
The bulkhead upper frame absorbs the upper impact energy. | |
|
|
|
The wheelhouse member and member support increase contact with the energy absorption structure of other vehicles. | |
|
|
|
The front side frame efficiently absorbs impact energy. | |
|
|
|
The remaining energy is dissipated into the floor frame. | | |
