To answer the original question it should be the same.

One car hits cliff car at fifty and decelerates to zero. Energy absorbed by one car deforming.

Two cars hit each other at an effective hundred mph assuming the cars are identical, both will deform exactly the same absorbing half the energy each. Same as one car hitting a wall at fifty.

Speed doesn't kill. It's the rapid stop if you hit something or the rapid acceleration if you are hit.
