Abstract: Passive protection of vehicles is the subject of numerous research and development works carried out both by independent centers and research centers within the structures of automotive concerns. While the passive protection of passenger cars has been developed basically since the beginnings of mature motorization, there are still many unregulated issues related to the safety of vehicles used in closed areas - including especially light transport vehicles with electric drives. These vehicles are built in small series and so far have not been equipped with additional structures to ensure their safety. Therefore, Łukasiewicz-WIT has undertaken a series of works related to the development of protective structures dedicated to this group of means of transport. This article presents the results of research in this field.
