You don't want to be in a steel cage in a crash crash because all of the force gets transferred to you instead of the cage.
There is not enough of the car to crumple and cushion the impact before the force of the crash is transferred to the driver. In a crash, you want your car to crumple and bend because it reduces the impact you feel as a driver, which is why larger cars are safer...
It's just like the high speed crash tests on Youtube with similar small cars https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ju6t-yyoU8s

It reminds me a lot of the Renault Twizy, which they sell here (saw one just today!): http://www.renault.no/ze/twizy :)
