I'd have doubts about any of them
Nowt much wrong with that crash simulation in your picture,

A-pillar stays in shape as does the roofline which suggests the front crumple zones (the bonnet bit) did their job....as DMC shows...looks at the passenger space and interior deformation of the above...

Intrusion into the interior space by way of the A-pillar kinking, roof buckling, and wheel being pushed beyond the bulkhead.

What MPV's do show badly safetywise is for REAR passengers...as there isn't much distance between the boot and the passenger...but you can say that for most MPV's and small cars.
