Where is the B-pillar of a car located?
1 Answers
B-pillar is the position between the front door and the rear door of the vehicle. The main function of the B-pillar is to withstand the impact force from the side, fully ensuring the safety of the driver and passengers, while also playing a role in supporting the vehicle structure. It is an essential part of the entire car body. Here is some extended information: 1. It is not recommended to purchase vehicles with replaced B-pillars: It is not advisable to buy such vehicles. Although new parts have been replaced, the integrity of the car body has been compromised. In the event of an accident, the B-pillar will not be able to withstand the impact force from the vehicle, thereby posing certain risks to the driver and passengers inside. Vehicles with replaced B-pillars can be considered as major accident vehicles. 2. Models without B-pillars: BMW's i3 model adopts a design without a B-pillar. Such models must use coach doors (suicide doors). At the same time, the safety of the vehicle cannot be guaranteed, and the performance in vehicle crash tests is relatively poor, mainly because there is no supporting point on the side of the vehicle. From this perspective, the B-pillar cannot be omitted.
