Steel yourself

No, the image of the shell you see pictured to the right is not the basis for a new Wiggles staff car. The red sections indicate the use of ultra-highstrength boron steel – claimed to be the strongest type of steel currently used in the automotive industry – forming the V60’s safety cage. Orange sections are extra-high-strength steel; yellow is ‘very’ highstrength. Green sections in the engine bay are aluminium to reduce weight. It’s stiffer and roomier than the old V60, and better to crash in, although more advanced safety systems reduce that likelihood.
