An airbag is configured to be coupled to a steering wheel of a motor vehicle. The airbag includes a first panel and a second panel. The first panel is coupled to the second panel to form a split at a bottom area of the airbag forming two or more legs. The two or more legs cooperate to reduce the thickness of the airbag in a lower region upon inflation of the airbag as compared with an upper region of the airbag which interacts with the head and upper torso of an occupant.
