Provided is a cargo storage system for a forward compartment of a vehicle. The cargo storage system includes a support frame having a plurality of separate frame units, and a load floor supported upon the frame units. The support frame is mountable upon a trunk bin or body-in-white structure of the vehicle, and the placement of the load floor upon the frame units divides the forward compartment into a load floor cargo area in an area above the load floor, and a sub-floor cargo area in an area below the load floor.

A vehicle includes a hood at a front end, a frunk under the hood, and a cabin. The vehicle includes a cross-beam positioned between the frunk and the cabin, and configured to inhibit protrusion of the frunk into the cabin in a frontal impact. The vehicle also includes a frame and the cross-beam is coupled to the frame. The cross-beam is a unitary member that is coupled to the frame or the cross-beam includes two members separated by a gap and each member is coupled to the frame. The frame includes shock towers for coupling the cross-beam to the frame. The frame can also include a bracket for coupling the cross beam to the frame.

This utility model integrates into the standard structure of a teardrop mini camper, a folding front door that generates a bathroom module. Usually in these vehicles, a rear door is used for the kitchen space, so the mini camper described herein incorporates a door of similar characteristics in its front part, where the drawbar is placed.

An actuation system for facilitating opening and closing of a closure panel of a vehicle via a hinge, the actuation system comprising: a pop up safety system mounted to a body of the vehicle adjacent to the hinge, the pop up safety system including a bracket connected to the closure panel; and a coupling mechanism coupling the hinge to the body in order to facilitate moving the closure panel from a closed hinge position to an open hinge position, such that the bracket is also connected to the coupling mechanism; wherein when the pop up safety system is operated, the bracket is decoupled from the coupling mechanism in order to facilitate movement of the closure panel away from the coupling mechanism.

A cargo hold arrangement of a front chamber of a motor vehicle that is closable by a front bonnet includes a cargo hold box with a cargo hold and a cover. The cargo hold box is closed by the cover when the cover is disposed in a closed position below the front bonnet. The cover is movable downwards in relation to the cargo hold box in a vertical direction of the cargo hold box in an event of an accident of the motor vehicle. The cover is smaller in relation to a clear cross-section of the cargo hold box such that the cover is movable downwards in a vertical direction of the motor vehicle into the cargo hold of the cargo hold box in the event of the accident.
