BODY PANELING

• RISE (Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution) has been adopted for the main body in order to ensure all-round impact safety at high level.
  
• The use range of antirust steel plates has been expanded and the high tension steel plates have been optimally arranged.
  
• Sealer has been applied to the entire folded area of the flanges for the doors, hood, and rear gate in order to improve rust resistance.
  
• The antirust steel has been used for the luggage compartment to improve its rust resistance.
  
• A ladder type frame in a luggage compartment closed-section structure has been adopted.
  
• The side member centre section of the frame has been enlarged, the front end has been extended, and an impact-absorbing bead has been added to optimise energy absorption upon impact.
