If they are equally well built, a bigger car can offer more protection than a smaller car, simply because it's bigger. There's more space, and there's more structures between the passengers and the dangerous outside.

But a well built smaller car can offer more protection than a poorly built bigger car. If I had to choose, I'd rather flip in a modern car with belt tensioners, air bags and side air bags etc than in an 50's Chevy.
