What is the safety rating for the Tesla Model 3?

With all the hoopla surrounding Tesla, I thought that I’d look at the Model 3 since I’m in the market for a new car. I was floored by how awesome it is. But even with the tech features and style, I’m worried about the safety rating. What’s the safety rating on the Tesla Model 3?

The
Tesla Model 3
offers superior handling, great acceleration, and up to 358 miles of range on a single charge. But beyond these excellent attributes, the Model 3 is one of the safest vehicles on the road. The safety rating for the Tesla Model 3 is:
  • A five-star safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
  • A Top Safety Pick+ distinction from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS)
Behind these honors lies a host of high-tech safety features, all designed to keep you safe behind the wheel:
  • Lane assist
  • Speed assist
  • Collision avoidance alert
  • Lane departure warning
  • Cross-traffic alert
  • Electronic stability control
