side airbags question

I have been reading on crash tests lately because my mom is in the market for a new car and i had curiously looked up some stuff on the maximas. they call the maximas side air bags "combo bags" because i think that its not just a torso bag nor just a head airbag but a combo of them both? Has anyone ever seen an inflated side airbag from a maxima...how much area does it cover? up to the roof and down to your waist? Just curious.
