I'm pretty sure the car will pass the latest JDM crash regs, which are also known to be one of the most strict regulations in the world.

IMO JDM "NCAP" crash tests are pretty much the same as Euro NCAP, so among the mostz strict in the world. And I have seen some of these "no crumple zone " buses pass the with rather good results.
