STEEL PLATE WITH UNEVEN THICKNESS
Due to the adoption of steel plate with uneven thickness* for the following parts, the incorporate structure
of uneven thickness has improved impact safety and has reduced weight.
1. The thickness of the front end crossmember outer applied at the right side of the vehicle has been
increased.
2. The thickness of the front side member inner applied at the rear has been increased.
3. The thickness of the center pillar reinforcement applied at the upper has been increased.
NOTE
*: Steel plates with different thickness welded together to make one steel plate
The thickness of the center pillar reinforcement
applied above this part has been increased.
(With the side outer panel removed)
The thickness of the front side member
inner applied behind this part has been
increased.
The thickness of the front end crossmember outer
applied at the right side of the vehicle from this part has
been increased.

OPERATIONAL STABILITY
The adoption of the following structure to increase rigidity of the suspension mounting part has improved
driving stability and has reduced noise from the road.
1. By directly joining a spring house bracket with increased thickness to the cowl top lower panel, and
adding an upper frame to the front pillar brace, the rigidity of the top, bottom, left, and right sides
of the front suspension has been improved.
2. The roof rail front, front pillar reinforcement upper, and side outer panel have been joined with each
other to increase torsion rigidity.
3. A closed surface structure is given by adding a rear shelf extension to the front of the rear shelf,
and the top of the rear shelf and rear wheel house have been additionally joined with a rear pillar
reinforcement, and the rear shelf and rear floor with a seat back plate to improve twisting rigidity.
4. Additional welded position of the door opening improves twisting rigidity.
