Cross-car beam produced by Elring Klinger with thixomoulded magnesium alloy assembled onto hydroformed aluminium alloy, over-moulded with 60% glass fibre reinforced polyamide (PA-GF60), nylon. This type of hybrid metal construction provides maximum strength to weight, whilst allowing design freedom for the integration of instrument panel, steering, airbags, hot and cold air, and all other necessary elements.
