Its the same thing with crumple zones in other cars. As for getting hit by the whole car/half the car, if the car split during an accident with another car, the car would be whole untill the accident, where it then would split into 2 part, therefore, you would get hit by the whole car, or 2 halves if that would make you feel better.
:roll: , the whole idea was in case of an accident with another car, was to protect the other vehicle too Einstein.
If you`ll hit a wall at 150km/h no crumple zone and airbag it`s gonna save your life, but if you hit/get hit by an Enzo at that speed by splitting you have the best way of dissipating the energy from the contact.
This kind of enginnering protects everybody: from the careless supercar driver that hit a pole, tree,whatever at some 200km/h +,the other drivers on the road and so on.

This was your first troll reply

Obviously the "weak" spot on the enzo is between the passenger compartment and the engine bay.
