Front doors
The doors are made up of a combination of
aluminium panels, aluminium sections and
aluminium castings.
Optimised rib geometry and wall thickness in
the hinge and lock mounting castings formed
the basis for ideal implementation of the
lightweight construction concept.
Rear doors
Large, high-strength side impact members
are integrated into the door to provide even
load distribution in the event of side impact.
