http://www.euroncap.com/tests/toyota_auris_2006/276.aspx Frontal Impact takes place at 64 Km/h, 40% of the width of the car striking a deformable barrier. In the side impact, a mobile deformable barrier impacts the driver's door at 50 km/h. In the pole test, the car tested is propelled sideways at 29km/h into a rigid pole.

Quoted from SAE:
An airbag upon collision of automobiles must finish expanding at the time when the driver's body arrives at the surface of the expanded airbag from the normal position and it must receive the body softly. Either early or late expansion reduce the effect. Determination of the optimal timing for trigger the airbag is quite important. But it is a difficult job, due to the time delay in the bag filling with the gas after collision.

@GottfriedvonCramm Thats incorrect. When I worked at Volvo the airbags has to have vents in them for the propellant to escape when the object i.e. driver/passenger impacts the airbag thus dispersing the blow of the head while the bag is fully deploying.

@ROCKSOLID19 you are wrong, The purprose of having the airbags fully deployed before the passenger reaches it is to absorb energy while deflating the airbag. If you hit the airbag while deploying, you will find it "rock solid", therefore killing yourself.
Peace.

The airbags tend to inflate too early. As the occupants heads move forward, the airbag must hit the head while before fully inflating.
