RISE (Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution) has
been adopted for the main body in order to improve
all-round impact safety at high level.
The applications of anti-corrosion steel plates have
been expanded to the hood, doors, inner panel of
the liftgate and reinforcements to improve the anti-
corrosive properties of the main body.
High-tensile steel panels of 590MPa-grade and
980MPa-grade have been used for some panels to
improve collision safety and reduce weight.
The sealer application area has been extended to
the entire flange folded edge of the doors, hood, and
liftgate, and the panel joints at the bottom of the front
floor and the rear floor, in order to improve rust
resistance.
