A crash management system includes a main frame that is configured to define a vehicular passenger compartment and that includes a lower cross member generally extending along a transverse direction of the vehicle. A front sub-frame includes a pair of bent members. Each of the bent members includes a longitudinal portion that extends along a longitudinal direction of the vehicle and that is configured to support the suspension components. Each of the bent members also includes a bend portion that extends from the respective longitudinal portion at an angle and that is disposed between the respective longitudinal portion and the lower cross member of the main frame. The longitudinal and bend portions are configured such that each of the bend portions deform, and each of the longitudinal portions continue to extend substantially longitudinally, if the impact energy applied to the vehicle exceeds a first threshold.
