The passenger compartment of the 2022-2023 Tesla Model S remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. Tesla demonstrated that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions. Protection of the driver’s chest was rated as marginal, based on dummy readings of compression. Analysis of the deceleration of the impact trolley during the test, and analysis of the deformable barrier after the test, revealed that the Model S would be a moderately benign impact partner in a frontal collision. In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection of all critical body areas was good, both for the driver and the rear passenger, and the Model S scored maximum points in this part of the assessment. Likewise, in both the side barrier and the more aggressive side pole impact, protection of all critical body areas was good. Control of excursion (the extent to which a body is thrown to the other side of the vehicle when it is hit from the far side) was found to be adequate. The Model S has a counter-measure to mitigate against occupant to occupant injuries in such impacts. The system performed well in Euro NCAP’s test, with good protection of occupants’ heads. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric analysis of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection. The Model S has an advanced eCall system which alerts the emergency services in the event of a crash and a system which automatically applies the brakes to prevent secondary collisions.
