348This evaluation focuses on how well the Corvette side structure manages intrusion and how quickly the restraints react. The door ring, sills, and floorpan are designed to route energy away from the chest and pelvis while the curtain and thorax airbags have a split second window to create a safe space between the occupant and the intruding pole. The timing matters as much as the force. Deploy too early or too late and the protection drops. What you want to see is limited cabin intrusion, controlled dummy chest deflection, and head injury values that remain within accepted limits, which points to a strong body and well tuned restraint logic.
