A trim article includes an outer casing having an inner surface defining an interior portion of the outer casing. The outer casing includes a front surface having a plurality of through apertures disposed thereon. A core portion is disposed within the interior portion of the outer casing and includes first and second portions having variated densities relative to one another. The first and second portions include lattice matrices having variated patterns of interconnected links and associated cells that provide variated force deflection parameters between the first and second portions of the core portion. The outer casing and the core portion are integrated to define a monolithic structure comprised of a common material.

An entertainment apparatus for a self-driving vehicle is configured to enable a passenger to playa game while viewing a game start image of a display installed in a seat in a state in which the passenger sits on the seat, where the game is executed and proceeds based on a signal that is obtained by detecting a distribution of human body pressure of the passenger by a body pressure sensor installed in the seat and a signal obtained by detecting touch pressure of the passenger by a touch pad installed in the seat, and thus the passenger is capable of playing various games related to body pressure and/or a touch signal while moving his or her body.

A vehicle body structure includes a front side member, a body attachment structure and an off-center impact structure. The front side member defines a hollow interior, an outboard wall and an inboard wall. The body attachment structure is attached to the outboard wall of the front side member. The off-center impact structure has a first end portion, a second end portion and a main section extending from the first end portion to the second end portion. The first end portion extends through an outboard forward opening and into the hollow interior of the front side member and is rigidly connected to the front side member forward of the body attachment structure. The second end portion is attached to the front side member at a location rearward of the body attachment structure with the main section extending outboard of the body attachment structure.

A sliding-type footrest device for a vehicle includes: a guide rail mounted on a floor panel and extending in a forward-and-backward direction; a footrest housing engaged with the guide rail to slide along the guide rail in the forward-and-backward direction, the footrest housing having a door configured to be opened or closed; and a footrest box disposed inside the footrest housing and allowing a backseat passenger to place feet into the footrest while the door is open.
