- carbon-core-2016-bmw-7-series-gets-carbon-fiber-implants quote "[...], "carbon core" is both a trade name and precise description of BMW's newest chassis construction technique, due to launch on the 2016 7-series sedan. Essentially, carbon fiber structural elements provide additional rigidity in key parts of the unibody structure, in some areas complementing aluminum and in others acting as standalone structural members. Suspension arms, steering knuckles and hubs were all redesigned to remove material without compromising strength, and additional aluminum helped reduce weight in areas like the doors, which are 10 percent lighter than those of the existing 7-series while still maintaining occupant protection characteristics. [...] Carbon fiber reinforced plastic is found in the B- and C-pillars, in the roof bows, along the center tunnel, on the package tray, in the sills, and [...] in a 9-foot arc that runs from the base of the A-pillar to the rear of the car along the roofline; [...]. Aluminum extrusions and castings make up critical suspension and engine mounting points, aluminum panels form the exterior body sheetmetal and steel stampings make up the rest of the structure.".
