Zusammenfassung:A vehicle including a lower reinforcement assembly for a front pillar assembly includes a rocker outer reinforcement member that extends in a vehicle lengthwise direction and includes a vertically oriented face. An upper portion extends inwardly from the face in a vehicle widthwise direction and a lower portion extends inwardly from the face in the vehicle widthwise direction thereby defining a vehicle lengthwise extending cavity. A front pillar lower reinforcement member is connected to the rocker outer reinforcement member. The front pillar lower reinforcement member includes an upwardly extending pillar portion and a lengthwise extending rocker portion having a vertically oriented face that extends downwardly terminating at the face of the outer reinforcement member at a lower edge that extends in the vehicle lengthwise direction. The front pillar lower reinforcement member includes a lower wrap reinforcement structure that extends downwardly beyond the lower edge and inwardly in the vehicle widthwise direction over a corner of the rocker outer reinforcement member. The corner connects the face of the rocker outer reinforcement member and the lower portion of the rocker outer reinforcement member.
