Shangjie Z7 Passes Spiral Rollover and Frontal Collision Test with Strong Performance in Body Structure and Battery Safety

On April 22, the Shangjie Z7 successfully completed the industry’s first extreme test involving a spiral rollover followed immediately by a frontal collision during a public demonstration. Test results showed that the passenger compartment retained its structural integrity, with no structural failure observed in the A-, B-, or C-pillars. The battery did not catch fire or explode, and both front and rear doors could be opened normally after the impact. The vehicle features a cage-like body structure with 13 horizontal and 5 longitudinal beams. High-strength steel and aluminum alloys account for 91% of the body materials, and 14 critical structural components within the passenger cabin are made of 2,000 MPa hot-stamped steel. The roof can withstand a load equivalent to 5.8 times the vehicle’s own weight. Additionally, the Z7 is equipped with a CPM (Collision Protection Module) safety redundancy system that automatically cuts power after a crash while ensuring the doors remain operable.
