This is a copy of a rodeo and they obviously left out some key safety featurs. Like the bar across the dash that keeps the engine from invading the passenger space.

I would bet that the steel is thinner, that it has zero crumple zones etc.

The only reason it even has an airbag is to keep the driver from seeing the steering wheel that is about to tear his head off.
