A vehicle includes a vehicle bumper and a plurality of airbag assemblies each fixed directly to the vehicle bumper. Each airbag assembly includes an airbag inflatable below the vehicle bumper and upwardly vehicle-forward of the vehicle bumper from an uninflated position to an inflated position. The airbag assemblies are spaced from each other when the airbags are in the uninflated position. An external tether is fixed to two of the airbags and extends along the vehicle bumper from one of the two airbags to the other of the two airbags when the airbags are in the uninflated position.
