Nissan, a trailblazer in automotive engineering, has been bestowed with the prestigious Automotive Excellence Award by the American Iron and Steel Institute for their groundbreaking utilization of advanced high-strength steel in the Nissan Rogue.
Nissan's pursuit was to conceive the quintessential family SUV, one that seamlessly blends versatility and opulence while simultaneously ensuring unparalleled safety performance and second-row functionality.
This product concept materialized through the strategic integration of AHSS (780+ MPa), which constitutes an impressive 35% of the Body-in-White (BIW) and 33% of the platform. Nissan ingeniously employed AHSS to amplify body stiffness, enhance dynamics, minimize road noise, optimize crash safety, and expand cabin spaciousness, all while minimizing overall weight gain.
