Outline
The multi-load path and triple H-shaped structure of distributing the power absorbed at the collision were used for the body shell.
A ring structure has been adopted for the triple H structure, realizing top-level crash safety performance.
Crushable structure from which an engine mounting bracket and suspension crossmember are made to secede at the collision is used for the body frame of an engine room.
The energy absorption space between a hood and engine was secured.

Construction
Triple H-shaped structure
An H-shaped structure has been adopted in which reinforcements are equipped in the floor, side frame, and roof, and each connection area is strengthened.
The combination of these three structural areas provide the strong triple H-shaped structure.
Triple H structure distributes the impulse force at the side collision to reinforcement of the roof, cabin side frame, and floor.
Triple H-shaped structure controls the twisting of the cabin while driving.

Crushable structure
Engine mounting brackets and front suspension crossmember are made to break away during a collision.

Ring structure
For the ring structure, the basic framework is thoroughly straightened.
For the ring structure, the frames are circularly linked.

Multi-load path
The multi-load path is stabilized during a collision, and has set the load distribution load path which carries out energy absorption.
The front side frame, front B frame and rear side frame are made into straight forms.

The front side frame is supported by the side sill, front B frame and side member.

Vacuum Pump [Skyactiv G 2.0]
Purpose, Function
Ensures vacuum required for braking force to compensate for the decrease
in intake manifold vacuum applied to the power brake unit caused by the retard
intake valve closing.
Construction
The vacuum pump is installed to the rear housing.

Resistor [Manual Air Conditioner]
Purpose
The resistor controls the blower motor rotation speed.
Function
The resistor controls the supply voltage to the blower motor according to
the fan switch operation, and adjusts the fan rotation speed (airflow volume).
Construction
The resistor is installed ...
