Independent testing by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has awarded the company a 5-star safety rating , not just overall, but in every subcategory. While its five-star score across the board has been attained by other vehicles (around one percent of all cars tested are capable of such a score) its ratings in individual categories are higher than any other vehicle, including larger SUVs and minivans. What’s really interesting is that part of the safety rating may be because the car is electric.”… cartechboy writes “Even crashing into a wall is good news now a days for Tesla Motors.
