You also have to remember that along with the mathematical equation, autos are made for a "controlled crush" now. The metal and everything else is designed to take the impact and crumple to soften some of the impact during high speed impacts which reduces the amount of energy transferred into the cabin and on it's passengers. It really doesn't take much to make some of those crumple zones ... well, crumple.
