Modern engineering and modern materials. Shouldn't be hard to do better in a crash than something designed before seat belts and crumple zones were implemented in cars.

One warning is they deliberately chose 3 wheels to qualify as motorcycle and thus lower requirements (probably in interests of weight and to allow more innovative technologies - I remember design #1 had issues with wanting to use cameras instead of mirrors for more streamlining, but bikes had to have mirrors too, at least at the time).

But, yeah, overall the design seems good and certainly far better than a typical 3 wheel motorbike.
