Not exact matches

In the event of a crash, extremely robust load - path structures, precisely defined deformation zones and an extremely strong passenger compartment are on hand to keep the impact energy away from the car's occupants and ensure maximum protection for all those on board.

Its rigid safety - cage structure is designed to protect occupants in an impact in any direction by controlled deformation, directing energy around and underneath the passenger compartment.

By creating specifically engineered pathways that help distribute these frontal impact forces through a greater percentage of the vehicle's total structure, ACE can more effectively route them around and away from the passenger compartment to help limit cabin deformation and further improve occupant protection.

For occupant safety, the engine is designed to move under the occupant compartment in a high - speed frontal collision, while a breakaway construction of the propeller shaft (connected with the engine - drop function) and the double - wall construction of the bulkhead helps to minimize cabin deformation, especially in the lower leg area.
