Vehicle with a knee protection airbag having a storage position and a deployed position. The airbag includes at least one cell constructed from reinforced elastic film and an inflator for inflating the airbag from the storage position to the deployed position. The airbag is arranged to substantially fill a space between the knees and lower extremities of the occupant when seated on the front seat and the instrument panel in the deployed position such that the airbag cushions only the knees and lower extremities of the occupant. Alternatively, the airbag includes at least one cell constructed from a laminate of a first elastic film and a second inelastic film. Alternatively, the airbag is a composite airbag having at least one layer of inelastic plastic film attached to a second layer of a more elastic plastic film, the second layer serves to blunt the propagation of a tear.
