BDifficulty 1/5

From the viewpoint of passive safety, what function do a passenger car’s bodywork and structure perform?

Correct answer

Help protect occupants in a collision.

They help protect occupants in a collision through the safety compartment and designed deformation zones. They do not guarantee avoiding every injury. Bodywork may also serve aerodynamic and aesthetic functions; these do not negate its passive-safety role.
