The objectives of the NGV (Next Generation Vehicle) Project were to demonstrate that stainless steel can be used to reduce weight and costs, and to improve safety and sustainability in structural automotive systems. The deliverables include enabling technologies, virtual technology for design and development, processing and testing. The compilation of the results as well as aspects such as new design criteria for the application of stainless steels in automotive components were arranged in an Engineering Guideline for car manufacturers and their suppliers. The program was approved by constructing several newly designed B-pillars where the deliverables were successfully applied. After performing some regular crash tests the cost efficiency was estimated by the NGV cost model. The NGV Project deliverables and data base establish a sound basis for the use of stainless steels in automotive series production.
