Which cars have unibody construction?
1 Answers
Unibody construction vehicles include the Crown, Reiz, Corolla, Vios, Toyota Prado, Vezel, Corolla, and Dongfeng Peugeot 5008, among others. Unibody construction does not have a separate frame; the body itself serves as the mounting base for the engine and chassis components, functioning as the frame and bearing all loads. For large buses with unibody construction: the basic unibody design makes the lower part of the body side panels below the waistline the main load-bearing component, with longitudinal and transverse members at the bottom typically made from thin-walled steel sections and sheets. For passenger cars with unibody construction: the front end is composed of a rigid frame, the middle section forms a box structure with left and right side panels, floor, roof, front panel, and windshield frame, and the rear end is integrated with the luggage compartment floor and inner and outer rear wheel housings.
