Low Vibration and Noise Body
Low Vibration and Low Noise Body1. General
An effective application of vibration damping and noise suppressant materials, and optimal body construction have contributed to reducing engine and road noise.
Making the surrounding of the front window sharp has reduce the wind noise.
2. Noise Absorbing and Vibration Damping Materials
^ With the establishment of a dash cross member and cross side member, the vibration of the dash panel section is restrained and the road noise reduction has been improved.
^ Asphalt sheet are optimally placed to reduce road noise for quieter vehicle operation.
^ Considering silence when Metal top opening and closing, noise suppressant material (silencer pad and urethane) has been arranged in the wide areas of floor, roof, door, and luggage room.
^ In order to secure the silence when Metal top closing, a weather strip has been established in the clearance of the front and rear of the movable package tray. Also, the room partition separating the compartment and the luggage room has been made in vertical-direction bead to secure the rigidity.
The followings have been adopted in order to make driving comfortable with a touch of wind under opened condition and to attempt high sound insulation and silence under closed condition.
^ In order to restrain the noise from the rain garter of the front pillar, the shape has been optimized.
