Abstract

A vehicle (100) is provided, comprising: a monocoque or semi-monocoque body (1) formed of a composite and forming the central body of the vehicle (100); and a first and a second externally mounted support member (200) for distributing forces around the vehicle (100), wherein the first externally mounted support member (200) is attached to the second externally mounted support member (200) for transferring forces between the externally mounted support members (200), wherein either the body (1), or one or more of the externally mounted support members (200), or both the body and one or more of the externally mounted support members (200), is provided with at least one region of additional strength, and one or more of the externally mounted support members is configured to transfer forces to this region.
