Front Bumper System

Front Bumper System

The bumpers are integrated in the vehicle structure. The front and rear one-piece plastic bumper panels are finished in body color and wrap around as far as the wheel arches.

There are differences between the EU and US country-specific versions due to the different legal requirements regarding certain impact speeds (4 and 8 km/h). The front cross panel is made entirely of aluminum. The components of the cross-panel are finished in anelectro deposition dip-coating process.
