Tesla Model 3
The Model 3 is an electric fastback mid-size four-door sedan developed by Tesla. The Model 3 was marketed as being more affordable to more people than previous models by Tesla. Since early 2020, the Model 3 has been the best-selling electric car in world history, and, in June 2021, became the first electric car to pass the 1 million global sales milestone. The Model 3 has been the world's top selling plug-in electric car (PEV) for three years running, from 2018 to 2020. It has also been the best-selling PEV in the United States for three consecutive years, 2018 to 2020, the top selling PEV in Europe in 2019, and the best-selling PEV in China in 2020.
Some cars do more to keep you safe than others. The Tesla Model 3 is one of those cars. A major part of the engineering behind the Model 3's self-driving future was to keep its occupants safe, especially while they wait behind the wheel for that functionality to arrive. The Model 3 earned Good ratings for all six IIHS crash tests, with a Superior rating for vehicle-to-vehicle crash avoidance, and an Advanced rating for vehicle-to-pedestrian avoidance. It's also safer than the Model S tested by IIHS in 2017 that received an Acceptable rating for driver-side small overlap, and a Poor rating for its inadequate headlights. Although it is not part of the IIHS test, Tesla's Sentry Mode will keep an eye on bumps and bruises that might happen while you're away.
Safety is the most important part of the overall Model 3 design. Some outstanding safety specifications:
- Rigid Structure: A material mix of aluminum and steel help to achieve the best structural rigidity, and increased occupant safety.
- Impact Protection: Combined with impact-absorbing rails and center pillar reinforcements, the strength and support of the rigid battery pack provides protection from every side.
- Very Low Rollover Risk: The position and weight of the floor-mounted battery pack provide a very low center of gravity—allowing for a very low rollover risk.
With the above safety-first design, Model 3 achieved a NHTSA 5-star safety rating in every category and subcategory with its energy absorbent crash structure, rigid passenger compartment, incredible side impact protection and one of the lowest rollover risks of any sedan on the road.
