Zone of deformation
To reduce damage to the interior, designed front and rear frames that deform on impact and effectively absorb / dissipate collision energy. In moderate frontal collisions in the area of the bumper amplifier dissipates blow to the front side frames and elements of the front suspension.
| Fig. 8.2. Crumple zones: 1 - the energy of the collision; 2 - the amplifier front bumper; 3 - the front side frame; 4 - the front cross member; 5 - caisson; 6 - side longitudinal beam; 7 - The front-frame

If the collision happens close to the cabin, the impact energy is dissipated lateral longitudinal beams and front B-shaped frames through the caisson, reducing the impact on the salon.
