Re:safety......what I thought of when I read your post was the possiblity of
putting a EV front end and dual airbags on my '91 Westy Syncro(!!!!)

I've been in two head-collisions ( in other cars ), and I REALLY don't like
them...... every so often I get fears about the seemingly vulnerable front
end,  but I've had my quota of head-ons ( neither of them were my fault by
the way -- the other drivers were 1) asleep and 2) drunk  )  -- and I know
the Westy is much stronger than my fear tells me.  What it really comes down
to is that I trust my driving and the VW Vanagon Westfalia Camper is JUST
SUCH AN AWESOMELY FUN AND WONDERFULLY DESIGNED HOME ON AND OFF THE
ROAD.....that I've decided the advantages far outweigh the risks....

I know this doesn't answer your question, but to me your EV's modern safety
features are it's best attributes.
