Body

The E66 is 140 mm longer as compared to the E65/E66. The extra length requires necessary component changes to the body:

- The roof and outer side frame.
- The inner side frame is a component of the E65/E66 that was separated and extended.
- The floor pan, the rear engine support and the transmission support are E66 components that are shortened for the E65.
- The rear doors and inner door panels.
- The rear sills are reinforced by two additional sheet metal panels.
- The side skin of the E66 is welded with double the amount of welds.
