ABSTRACT:
An automotive vehicle front structure includes upper and lower siderails and a structural link extending from the upper and lower siderails, with the structural link having a pivotable connection to the upper siderail and a rigid connection to the lower siderail, such that energy absorption provided by the structure may be tailored by varying the character of the joint between the structural link and the upper siderail.
