1959 Chevy Bel-Air vs. 2009 Chevy Malibu -- in offset head-on crash. IIHS did this to 'celebrate' their 50 years of automotive safety. The results speak for themselves. The IIHS reports that the Malibu driver would have walked away with minor injuries (assuming burns to the face from the airbag). The driver of the Bel-Air would have been killed instantly.
