What is the Frame of an Off-Road Vehicle?
1 Answers
Off-road vehicle frame is a chassis structure, which only exists in body-on-frame vehicles, while unibody vehicles do not have this frame. The advantages and disadvantages of body-on-frame construction are as follows: 1. Body-on-frame vehicles have high strength and durability, making them suitable for trucks and professional off-road vehicles. They won't deform when entering or exiting rough terrain, and the "frame" can absorb a lot of vibrations and impacts on bumpy roads, providing a stable ride for passengers. 2. The downside is that the frame is heavy, requires more materials, and is costly. Additionally, since the body is mounted on the frame, the floor is higher, which limits interior space and results in less agile handling.
