ABSTRACT:
A stiff vehicle floor structure is arranged in a common plane with vehicle bumpers. A plurality of energy-absorbing impact elements are distributed spaced from one another along the length of a vehicle passenger compartment and at the height of the floor structure. The impact elements are provided in side body parts of the vehicle and serve to contribute to transverse stiffness of the vehicle by absorbing the impact energy and transferring collision forces to the floor structure.
