Does the Excelle have a rear anti-collision steel beam?
2 Answers
The Excelle is equipped with a rear anti-collision beam that nearly covers the entire rear section. It utilizes DP1000 ultra-high-strength steel with a material yield strength of 645MPa and a thickness of 1.2mm. Featuring a hat-shaped structure and designed with collapse guide grooves, it is secured to the longitudinal beams with screws, effectively protecting the vehicle and its occupants in the event of a rear-end collision. The Excelle measures 4609mm in length, 1798mm in width, and 1464mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2640mm. This 4-door, 5-seater sedan comes with a 6-speed automatic transmission, delivering a maximum power of 83kW and a maximum torque of 141Nm.
As an Excelle owner for nearly four years, I can confirm the rear anti-collision beam is standard equipment. My 2021 model had this feature specifically highlighted by the salesperson during purchase - it's hidden inside the rear bumper to absorb rear-end impact and protect passengers. Made of stainless steel with substantial thickness, I saw its simple yet practical structure when installing audio components. Once experienced a minor highway rear-end collision at low speed - while the bumper got scratched, the beam remained intact with no structural deformation, saving significant repair costs. Routine underbody inspections prevent mud/water corrosion. Overall, Excelle doesn't cut corners on safety features, which is why I recommend it to friends - family cars should prioritize safety and reliability.
