The Composite Intensive Vehicle (CIV), a joint program between Chrysler Motors and the Budd Company, optimizes the use of materials as the marketplace dictates an increasing number of lower-volume vehicles. A common steel platform is married to a number of low-volume composite space frame body style structures. The upper structure, which differentiates the body style, consists of jointless, hollow resin transfer molded (RTM) body sides, front and rear headers, and a rear crossmember panel, adhesively joined to form a structural cage. This cage is bonded, together with common RTM floor and cockpit modules, to the steel platform. A one-piece hollow molding of a body side - including the exterior and interior surfaces surrounding the front door, and quarter window openings - demonstrates large-part processing feasibility and its inherent benefit of parts consolidation.
