If you compare the images of the Model S on:

Small overlap front: http://www.iihs.org/frontend/iihs/ratings/images/api-rating-...

Moderate overlap front: http://www.iihs.org/frontend/iihs/ratings/images/api-rating-...

You can clearly see a difference where the structural integrity of the door area begins to fail.

Compare that to the BMW 5 series in small overlap front: http://www.iihs.org/frontend/iihs/ratings/images/api-rating-...

There doesn't appear to be any structural damage to the door area.
