This is industry’s
first injection-molded plastic over a hydroformed steel tube front-end carrier, yielding excellent
craftsmanship and styling freedom, a 30% mass & 70% part-count reduction
vs. stamped steel, package space reduction for aggressive lighting design, and
improved airflow, which reduces radiator warranty issues. Special 3D plastic mechanical attachments to
the steel tube create a secure connection and help the vehicle achieve a 5 Star
Crash Rating – the first Australian vehicle to do so.
