The RISE (Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution) body construction of Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV greatly enhances protection for all passengers. In the event of a collision, efficient energy absorption and high cabin integrity are crucial. The RISE body delivers both to help keep you protected in front, side and rear collisions.

This RISE sounds great. But does anyone from the Outlander PHEV forum has any detailed information on this technology?
 
There is more about the RISE technology used in the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV at the following Wikipedia article.

RISE is a monocoque body system that combines an energy-absorbing front and rear section with a strong, rigid occupant cell to provide protection in the event of an accident. It features high tensile steel reinforcing bars in doors and energy-absorbing material in the side pillars and roof rails. The body structure is based around a one-piece shell with high levels of bending and torsional rigidity, which provides a steel cage for the safety of both the driver and passengers.
