Safety and quality are the only ones, and the home is more reliable
Although the Peugeot 4008 never flaunts its own safety strength, in fact, the Peugeot 4008 is quite in place in terms of safety and quality. Recently, a video of a Peugeot 4008 being dragged and squeezed for hundreds of meters by a fully loaded semi-trailer was circulated on the Internet. It is understood that the Peugeot 4008 was driving forward at a speed of 114km/h at that time, and it is difficult to imagine how terrible the extrusion and collision force generated by the collision of the two vehicles at that time were. Judging from the damaged pictures at the scene, the Extruded and dragged Peugeot 4008 withstood the squeeze of the fully loaded truck, and the body structure was not significantly deformed. Most importantly, the A and B pillars that support the safety space of the people in the car are intact, but the metal skin and paint surface are scratched, and the safety quality of the body structure is really excellent.
So, how does the Peugeot 4008 withstand the drag of a fully loaded truck? The answer lies in the super strong body safety structure it adopts, and its B-pillar has reached 1600Mpa after strength strengthening, which is almost the same as the strength of the national manned submersible "Jiaolong", and there are three beams on the top skylight reinforcement ring, while using ultra-high strength steel plates, effectively supporting the top pressure and preventing body deformation. In addition, the "neutral column" B-pillar adopts 1800Mpa ultra-high strength hot stamped steel plate, which effectively supports the cockpit space and enhances the safety strength of the whole vehicle. It can be seen that the reason why the Peugeot 4008 was dragged by a large truck and did not deform was because it was hard enough.
