Lars Explains | Tesla Vehicle Safety

Engineered with an all-electric architecture, Tesla vehicles provide a very low probability of rollover risk and occupant injury. Lars Moravy, VP of Vehicle Engineering at Tesla, explains why.

I was involved in an accident about a month ago. The model 3 we were driving hit an 800lbs engine that someone dropped on the interstate at 80MPH. The driver and I only walked away with a few scratches and the car was totaled. These cars are definitely safe!

I was in an accident on Christmas Eve with my family (2 parents, 5 kids). Our Tesla was a total loss, but no one was injured. A retired veteran gave us a ride in his minivan to our destination. He saved Christmas for the kids, and Tesla saved our lives.

Unparalleled safety in these cars. So thankful to know that they are super safe!

Very cool process. I like seeing the insides.

Tesla may not be everyone’s favorite brand, but there is no denying that they are some of the safest cars on the road.

Your car saved my life on August 11th four days ago.

I was hit by a wrong way driver at 60mph head on. I have no broken bones. Just soft tissue damage, and a concussion. The other involved driver unfortunately died immediately. I am so thankful for the Tesla Model 3 that saved my life

When you get rid of the gasoline engine, the entire front of the car gets dedicated to crumble zone saftey.

Thanks Lars, great video. One if not THE most important reason I purchased Tesla vehicles for my family is the safety rating.

My Tesla model S, save my life in a crash on January 25, 2023. The crash was violent and the car was completely totaled but I am alive without a scratch thank you Tesla engineers.

Brilliant engineering! Love the concept of multiple paths to disperse crash energy. Needs to be industry standard!

[ChitFromChinola]

Wow. He opened the door. The front is smashed, and he opened the door. That’s what a true 5-star looks like.

[KLWTTS]

Simple, straightforward talk about why Tesla and EVs are superior. Great work @Tesla

[ahmadmiladsafi]

Another minute of Lars, and he would have got me purchasing another Tesla…whew that was close.

[imudevco]

Very fascinating. Tesla, never stop improving. Thanks for the mini series in Tesla design and engineering.

This is one of the most compelling point to buy a Tesla and most people doesn't even know they are the SAFEST car on the road, we need moire engineering video like this please!!!!

[teslahype]

Tesla vehicles are safest! This video is mostly highlighting passive safety features, Tesla also has active safety features via software and computer vision👍 Go Tesla!

My wife was hit by a semi truck in her Model 3 and walked away. So thankful that we drive the safest cars on the road. Thank you to all the Tesla engineers!

It is amazing that they just put all the info out there for the competition to copy. They really are committed to human safety to the point of helping competition.

There was a live crash test this guy did a few months ago off Highway 1 at Devils Slide with a Model Y. Purposely drove off a 250ft or 300ft cliff. I think the driver/father/husband thinking in his jail cell was surprised that everyone survived

Armchair Safety expert here—been studying crashes as an amateur for over 20 years. I applaud Tesla for the job they did on the Model Y. In terms of crush measurements and injury measurements, Tesla easily hands down beats the majority of cars out there. I’ve never seen any car come back with lower injury force measurements! Tesla model Y all around is the safest car in the world. Also that’s excellent to see the upper engagement points (load paths) so high up and down low. That’s dedication to detail right there!!! Also kudos to Tesla acing IIHS side impact 2.0. Rockstar
