If you ask me looks like its a very safe car, look at the rigidity of the roof on the pole impact its amazing. If you look at higher end cars the roof will bend a bit more. I think we have bought ourselves a very safe car!!
BTW Rip to the Toyobarus that were hurt on these videos!!

I wonder what the speeds were for each impact. Those vids shocked me.

3rd video had me cringing a bit. At least the car looks safe for anyone to live another day.

aluminum hoods always crumple so dramatically, poor cars. Glad to know this thing is safe though, thats pretty cool.

Was going to say while the third looks brutal, the passenger compartment looks to be safe. Sure the car is a loss but your life looks to be "okay".

Looks very safe from a passenger standpoint. LOVE that the side impact machine uses Legacy GT wheels

Safety to me has always been the ability to avoid accidents. The fact you can dictate your car in ways other people can't (and you are scanning the road) usually keeps you out of trouble. As long as it isn't a death trap on impact, I'm fine.
