Yikes! Yeah, they got some buckling there!!!

I was looking at the full frontal crash test videos, where the Metro had some bucking and the Aveo had absolutely nothing. The front end just accordions in such a way that the passenger compartment appears to be under no stress whatsoever.

Your video is of the offset test. I believe that one is done by the IIHS and may have not been around in the early ninetees.
