New models of the premium brand will be the first cars to receive power structure elements made of innovative steel. This, as the automaker’s press service notes, is a unique new-generation hot-stamped steel with a tensile strength of 2.4 GPa (2400 MPa).
The innovative material is expected to set a new industry standard, taking vehicle occupant protection during serious accidents to a whole new level.
Steel 2.4 GPa is superior to the 2.0 GPa class used today in key parameters: the strength of key elements is increased by 15%, energy absorption is increased by 10%, and the weight of parts is reduced by 5-10%.
