Unbelievable product promotion. A modern Audi vs an old classic Chevelle. The Chevelle sustains major damage from banging into the Audi but the Audi just sustains minor wrinkles to the side and rear bumper. The Audi is mostly plastic and light gauge sheet metal while the Chevelle is heavy steel all around. Right.

Pretty sure the Chevelle bangs into things other than the Audi, hence the heavier damage.

Later after the police got involved, the Chevelle got into other crashes but initially, they were only banging into each other.

The Chevelle rear ends the Audi, then there's some side contact, then after the tunnel there's some heavy contact with something we don't really see. The impact from the rear ending would've been minimal since the closing speed wasn't great. And being a modern car, the Audi would have side impact protection. The only thing that seemed off was when the Audi tries to T-bone the Chevelle. With crumple zones at the front of modern cars it would've looked wrecked, even if the contact was at a relatively low speed.
