It's not enough to look at it, the issue is the shape + a unibody stainless steel outer shell.

Frame + Pane construction allows for crumple zones, I don't see how a unibody stainless steel will allow it.

Whatever you hit becomes the crumple zone, aka the other car.

(/s - it probably is going to be super unsafe and get bad safety scores).
