Reinforced Structure
The design of the body frame of 107 allows for energy to be absorbed in an impact to protect the occupants.The integrity of the passenger compartment is ensured by attaching the engine to the subframe and by a strip and strengthening pipe inside the doors. The front bumper has a high absorption capacity thanks to a beam mounted on shock absorbers bolted to the chassis legs.
