Where is the car B-pillar located?
1 Answers
The car B-pillar is located between the front and rear seats of the cockpit, specifically the vertical bar between the two side doors, extending from the roof to the bottom of the car. From the inside, the seat belt is attached to the B-pillar. The B-pillar primarily supports the roof and the front and rear doors, as well as accommodates components such as seat belts and wiring. In the event of a side impact, the B-pillar also plays a protective role for the occupants inside the vehicle. Thanks to the application of high-tech materials like carbon fiber and high-strength alloys in car bodies, models such as the BMW i3 and Citroën C3 have now eliminated the B-pillar, enhancing cabin space while maintaining safety and making it more convenient for passengers to enter and exit the vehicle.
