in both active and passive vehicle safety, comparing a 1963 600 seats and a modern Ibiza FR can really put things in perspective.

to be honest, 60 years is a very long time, especially with how fast technology seems to be evolving. Since the emergence of the era of digital for more intelligent passive safety systems, modern cars make their predecessors look like they come from the stone age.

Javier Luzon, head of Passive security at Headquarters remembers still how the 600 was not even equipped with headrests, which is much less prevent neck sprains.

while the seat belts were available in the early 1960s, the 600 only comes with "an inextensible belt users had to fit their body." today, safety belts adapt to body the driver and not the opposite, providing even more security in the event of collision.

comparing the brakes on the 600 and the Ibiza FR is also very telling. When the 600 came with drum brakes "with much lower powerful braking than what is possible today", modern cars have not only ABS but also 'disc of large diameter brakes' and wider tires for the best contact with the road.

there are the chassis, which of course today, it is much better to absorb the energy of an impact, although according to Luzon, the next step in automotive safety for cars "anticipate future events and react accordingly."
