Crumple zones are part of the tough safety shell of our cars, helping to protect you and your passengers in the event of an accident
Our cars are designed and engineered with a range of safety features to help protect you and your passengers in any eventuality.
All our cars are built with a tough safety shell. We 'test-drive' our designs through accurate, computer-simulated accidents to make sure the safety shell stays intact when you need it to.
To further enhance your safety, we include crumple zones at the front and rear of the shell. Crumple zones are designed to absorb impact energy during a collision so that most of the energy is dissipated across these zones, and not in your passenger compartment. The strong outer shell comes with front and rear crumple zones that help to absorb the impact of a crash, increasing the safety of occupants.
