Lightweight and Highly Rigid Body





^ High tensile strength steel is used as shown in the following illustration in order to achieve a lightweight body.





^ A brace is installed between the front attachment area of the rear suspension member and the front floor reinforcement, maintaining torsional rigidity. By connecting the braces with a pipe brace, the tendency of the tunnel in the floor to flex is reduced, thus enhancing transverse rigidity.
