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.
The front - axle components, steering gear, engine and transmission are pre-mounted on a high - strength - steel subframe which is bolted securely to the body's side members, making it a key component in the front crash structure of the new E-Class: in the event of a frontal impact, the subframe forms a separate
load - bearing
path along which the impact
energy is absorbed at specific points (see page 56).
Advanced Structural Safety A special steel unibody structure with a 2 - system
load path structure allows the Clarity Electric to efficiently absorb front, side and rear crash
energy, distributing crash
loads through the structure while helping to retain the integrity of the passenger cabin.
The CR - Z's body structure benefits from what Honda calls Advanced Compatibility Engineering, which ensures that
load paths for impact
energy are equally effective, irrespective of the bumper height of the other vehicle involved in the crash.
To absorb
energy from low speed impacts and support the bumper in a collision with pedestrians, there's a third
load path element.
