  • VEHICLE BODY FRONT STRUCTURE FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE
    Publication number: 20190322164
    Abstract: In a vehicle body front structure for an electric vehicle, including a battery pack mounted beneath a vehicle body floor, a bracket and a rear end part of a vehicle body frame are each inclined downward from an upper front to a rear. When viewed in a fore-and-aft direction, at least part of the bracket overlaps the rear end part. Therefore, the rear end part, moving rearward due to frontal collision, abuts against the bracket, and the frame slips and drops downward from the upper front to the lower rear along the bracket, thus preventing any decrease in crash stroke of the frame due to interference with the battery pack at the end stage of collision. Since abutment relationship with the rear end part can be adjusted merely changing angle of inclination or position of the bracket, the cost is very low.
