Constellium provides front Crash Management Systems for both the BMW X4 and X5. The Crash Management System absorbs energy in a collision to protect the occupants and vehicle integrity.
The systems supplied to the BMW Group feature a second smaller bumper beam, which helps prevent a pedestrian from falling under the car in the event of an impact.
Constellium also supply aluminium front rails for the BMW X5, which are part of the vehicle architecture and support the engine. It also serves to absorb energy in the event of a high-speed collision.
“We are proud to expand our relationship with BMW Group to include the White, Georgia, plant,” said Constellium Automotive Structures business general manager, Lionel Chapis.
