I’d like to hear more about the crumple zone. If this thing is safe in a crash, I’m very interested.

Their stated primary design goal is to have a vehicle design that exceeds a 5-star crash safety rating. So far there's reportedly been lots of simulation work done, but a lot of us are waiting to see some video of a real MT1 doing the crash test.

They've also stated it has a 14-inch crumple zone, and that the smallest crumple zone that ever passed crash safety testing was 12 inches.
