In this paper, based on the 2024 C-NCAP evaluation regulations, a finite element model of an SUV front end impacting a pedestrian's leg was established using ANSA software. Numerical simulations were carried out using LS-DYNA, and test data were employed to validate the model. Evaluation of the injury values obtained from the simulation and testing shows that the thigh bending moment and knee ligament elongation comply with the high performance limits of the 2024 C-NCAP, whereas the calf bending moment T1 does not. Further analysis shows that the lower front-end grille presses against the knee, occupies the X-direction energy-absorbing space, limits the deformation of the front bumper to absorb energy, and thus increases the calf bending moment. Two targeted structural improvements were made: the solid structure in the center of the energy-absorbing foam was replaced by an open-cell structure with a small groove at the upper end, and the license-plate mounting bracket was lowered by 10 mm along the X-direction. After these modifications, the calf bending moment T1 drops to 265.1 Nm, meeting the 2024 C-NCAP high-performance limit, and the thigh bending moment and the knee ligament elongation continue to satisfy the same criteria.
