Structural difference in '90-'93 cars? 200

According to the crash test results on this page, Volvo 240s from the 1990-1993 model years had slightly worse performance in front passenger side impacts than the 1982-1989 model years had. If anything, I would have thought that overall results would be *better,* since driver's-side airbags became standard in 1990. Does anyone know what caused the passenger side to become less "safe"? Fluke in the statistics?
