auto chassis decompression
There has been a gradual shift in modern small car designs. There has been a trend toward combining the chasis frame and the body into a single structural element. In this grouping, the steel body shell is reinforced with braces that make it rigid enough to resist the forces that are applied to it. To achieve better noise-isolation characteristics, separate frames are used for other cars. The presence of heavier-gauge steel components in modern separate frame designs also tends to limit intrusion in accidents.
