Does the Lavida have a rear anti-collision steel beam?
2 Answers
The Lavida is equipped with a rear anti-collision beam, which is made of 3mm thick steel and is quite sturdy (the beam does not extend in front of the tires, only covering the area between the front and rear tires). The anti-collision beam is a device designed to absorb collision energy and mitigate damage to the vehicle during impacts. Below are the functions of the anti-collision beam: 1. The primary role of the anti-collision steel beam is to transmit impact forces. The front and rear anti-collision steel beams are typically connected to the vehicle's longitudinal beams. When the car is hit from the front or rear, if the force is applied to the anti-collision beam, the beam can transfer the impact force to the connected parts, allowing the longitudinal beams and the passenger compartment to bear the main force. 2. During high-speed collisions, the anti-collision steel beam acts as a force transmitter, while in low-speed collisions, it helps reduce repair costs.
I've been into cars for several years and am fascinated by the structures of various models. The Lavida indeed has a rear anti-collision steel beam, which is part of its safety design, especially in newer versions like the post-2018 models that come standard with this reinforcement. It effectively cushions the impact during rear-end collisions, reducing body damage. In the modification community, discussions often revolve around its thickness and placement, with advice against self-removal or alteration as it affects overall safety performance. In actual driving, combined with other features like airbags, it offers a more stable feel. Regular maintenance to check for rust is crucial. Overall, this design is quite practical and meets the daily needs of most drivers.
