Abstract: A method is for producing a three-dimensional vehicle door frame inner reinforcement element (52) including an inner center pillar part (66), an inner front pillar part (68) and an inner side rail part (64) joining the inner center pillar part (66) and the inner front pillar part (68). The method includes providing an inner center pillar blank, an inner front pillar blank and an inner side rail blank, said inner blanks being substantially planar, assembling the inner center pillar blank and the inner front pillar blank to the inner side rail blank in order to form a substantially planar door frame inner reinforcement blank, and hot stamping the door frame inner reinforcement blank to shape the three-dimensional door frame inner reinforcement element (52).

Abstract: Front structure for an electric vehicle including a lower dash panel, a seat cross-member and a tunnel nose, such that the tunnel nose is designed to absorb energy in its front portion while resisting intrusion in its rear portion, optimizing the energy absorption in the part during a front crash and protecting the battery pack from being breached by the downward pushing effect of the lower dash panel.

Abstract: A vehicle front body structure containing an upper longitudinal beam and a upper fender rail for supporting a fender of the vehicle, said upper fender rail extending in a longitudinal direction substantially parallel to the upper longitudinal beam and having a front end and a rear end spaced apart along the longitudinal direction.
The resistance to plastic deformation of the upper fender rail increases from the front end of the upper fender rail to the rear end of the upper fender rail. The yield strength of the material of the rear section is greater than the yield strength of the material of the front section and/or the rear section has a greater wall thickness than the wall thickness of the front section.
