Boron Extrication An in-depth look into vehicle extrication and rescues involving today's automobiles
The new Lincoln MKT has a safety feature named SPACE or Side Protection And Cabin Enhancement Architecture. SPACE helps optimize side-impact occupant protection. The SPACE system integrates a hydroformed high strength steel tube embedded in the floor that runs the width of the vehicle from B-pillar to B-pillar and along the rocker panels to form a safety cage to help protect passengers in side impact incidents.
A vehicle fire side note, the liftgate on the Lincoln MKT is made up of magnesium and aluminum instead of steel. So full PPE as with any vehicle fire!
