This second-row seat back successfully meets the extremely
challenging ECE luggage-retention load case through the use of unidirectional
glass-reinforced GMT composite rather than typical steel. The
compression-molded design, which required over 100 iterations of FEA to
finalize, eliminates 5 parts from the earlier steel design and saves 3.1 kg/car
in a thinner construction that also is easier to install.
