What makes a tesla so safe
NHTSA tests show that Tesla makes some of the safest cars – with the lowest probability of an injury.
The reasons why a Tesla is so safe are:
- Low center of gravity, which makes flipping the car almost impossible.
- There is no engine, so the entire front of the car acts as a crumple zone.
- Alle Tesla’s have specially designed passenger airbags.
- The car’s frame is made of ultra-high strength beam structures that work to mitigate the impact.
