An airbag includes a panel and a plurality of fingers. The panel includes an impact surface and defines an inflation chamber inflatable to an inflated state. The plurality of fingers are in communication with the inflation chamber. Each of the fingers are spaced from each other and extend from the impact surface away from the inflation chamber in the inflated state. During a vehicle impact, the momentum of the occupant may move the occupant towards the plurality of fingers. The fingers may absorb energy from the occupant and reduce or prevent the head of the occupant from sliding across the impact surface and/or rotating.
