• High temperature knockdowns for composite and structurally bonded accumulators

• LV Batteries and Pressurized Cylinders must be inside the chassis

• No engine mounts on the Shoulder Harness Bar or Braces

• Maximum static ride height should be <= 75mm

Methods for a detached wheel to disable High Voltage:

• De-pin and separate outboard communication connector

• Break communication cable

• Mechanically pull apart inboard communication cable

• Comparing and engineering for different materials

• Strength, stiffness, triangulation, load paths, gussets

• Suspension loading

• EV Accumulator mounts

• Steering Rack Protection

• HV Side Minimum Height

• Half-Monocoque Attachment

• Monocoque Details

In addition to a torsion test, local and whole-chassis FEA can show performance for different chassis designs during combined cornering, aero and bump loads, for drivetrain attachments during acceleration and braking, and for harness and other mounts during front impact.

They made a whole host of small changes that were almost imperceptible to the eye but aerodynamically significant. They also gave the car a nose-down rake by lowering the front suspension and raising the rear, both ever-so-slightly. All of the changes made the car significantly safer to drive at high speed. But the Ford Indigo was never going to be driven at high speeds as a show concept car – right?

• Standard Honeycomb IA

• FH Angle and Head Restraint Protection

• Tougher Monocoque Modulus and Harness

• Max 2 Accumulator Attachments Per Tube

• And more…

Crash safety considerations beyond the frame and impact attenuator.
