Vehicle sunvisor assembly

A vehicle sunvisor assembly, comprising:

• a support structure attached to a vehicle body structure adjacent to a first area of a windscreen of the vehicle body structure;
• a sunvisor panel having a first end and a second end, the first end being supported by the support structure for pivotal movement about an upright axis and movement about an offset axis that is not parallel to the upright axis, the second end of the sunvisor panel having a first attachment end;
• and
• an energy absorbing structure installed to the vehicle body structure adjacent to a second area of the windscreen spaced apart from the first area, the energy absorbing structure having a housing and a downwardly extending projection, the housing being fixed to a roof structure above a headliner and the downwardly extending projection being substantially located below the headliner, the downwardly extending projection being pivotal relative to the housing via a pivot structure above the headliner, the downwardly extending projection having a second attachment end that aligns with the first attachment end such that with the first attachment end of the sunvisor panel pivoted to the second attachment end, the first attachment end releasably attaches to the second attachment end,
• the second attachment end being located at a lower end of the downwardly extending projection, and the pivot structure being located at an upper end of the downwardly extending projection, and with the first attachment end secured within the second attachment end the energy absorbing structure is configured to absorb energy and pivot upward and forward in response to an object contacting and moving the sunvisor panel in a forward direction, transferring movement energy to the second attachment end via the first attachment end causing the downwardly extending projection to pivot about the pivot structure.
