Does the Nissan Sylphy have an anti-collision beam?
2 Answers
The Nissan Sylphy is equipped with anti-collision beams, including steel beams at the front and in all four doors, but there is no anti-collision steel beam at the rear of the vehicle. Taking the 2021 Nissan Sylphy as an example, it falls under the compact car category with body dimensions of 4631mm in length, 1760mm in width, and 1503mm in height, a wheelbase of 2700mm, a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters, and a curb weight of 1188kg. The 2021 Nissan Sylphy features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is powered by a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine delivering a maximum horsepower of 122ps, a maximum power of 90kw, and a maximum torque of 155nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
I recently researched the safety features of the Nissan Sylphy, and it does indeed have crash beams, primarily embedded within the front and rear bumpers. I remember the salesperson explaining in detail during the purchase that they are made of high-strength steel, which helps absorb the impact of low-speed collisions, protecting pedestrians and other vehicles. The Sylphy performs well in safety tests, such as scoring high in the Euro NCAP, partly due to its well-designed crash beams. However, the materials may vary slightly between different year models—newer generations use lighter aluminum alloys to improve efficiency. I think it's a good practice to check the condition of the bumpers before driving, as wear and tear on the crash beams can affect safety. Regular maintenance is crucial.
