For improved fuel economy, car body weight must be reduced. To serve that purpose, TS 590 - 980 MPa grade, a new advanced H.S.S (high-strength steel) has been developed. Research and development efforts related to this new breed of steel is increasing and becoming more important. Advances in forming, rigidity and crash simulation, in agreement with experimental results, forming knowledge, technology to compensate for H.S.S material weakness, and new technologies (like laser welding and quench hardening) are expected to broaden H.S.S car body part applications in the near future.
