Why do cars even need a B-pillar?

251 views

I have seen videos of cars that do not have a B-pillar. I think it looks much better because it reduces the separation between each row. It’s hard for me to understand that a roof is heavy enough that it needs a support in the middle.

It’s not about supporting the weight of the roof, it’s about supporting the weight of the rest of the car in the event of a rollover. Also a convenient place for the doors to seal against.
