Tesla's Model S electric car nabs top US safety rating | The Verge

Tesla's Model S electric car nabs top US safety rating | The Verge

Tesla points out that even though the Model S is a sedan, it scored higher than every minivan and SUV that was tested as well. It also notes that unlike gas vehicles, there's no engine block in the front of the Model S (the electric motor is apparently only about a foot in diameter), giving it comparatively more space to crumple and slow down its occupants, exemplified in the video above. If you'd like to read more about how the Model S managed to score so well, check the source link below.
