BTW, overall size and creature comforts are adding far more weight than the safety features.
Weight isn't necessarily bad though.
It's good when you have it on your side, so you can crush the other road user to death ...

A frontal collision at 45 mph with a pole or tree is very much survivable with a seatbelt.
It's more or less how I wrecked my first new car back in '93 ...
