Reinforcements

Reinforcement





Areas of the body that are most vulnerable in the event of a collision are reinforced. In addition, some of these reinforcements are manufactured in high-strength steel. The circled areas are especially vulnerable and require extreme care during bodywork repair.

3. Upper part of A-pillar

5. Bulkhead in door sill
6. B-pillar
