The aim of all crash safety measures is to preserve the
crash survival space inside the vehicle and provide
maximum protection for the occupants in accidents.
This is achieved by transferring the forces arising in
the collision specifically to the vehicle structure. In this
way, the degree of deformation at the point of impact
is reduced as the forces affect a larger area.
On the Eos, in frontal and side collisions, the forces
are distributed broadly across the centre and lower
load levels thanks to the reinforcing and stiffening
measures on the side and floor structure so that
maximum protection for occupants is guaranteed
even when the roof is open.
