Any reason in particular? It's still one of the safest production cars ever made, the rear facing jumper seats were an option that Tesla used to offer back when I bought mine in 2015. The seats use a 5 point harness, and the rear bumper is reinforced so the trunk is not a crumple zone... Maybe I'm missing something?
We don't road trip in the Tesla with the kids, but it's useful to have the extra seating capacity for short trips around town.
That looks like the crumple zone worked just as it was intended to. What info do you have to suggest there was a reinforced bumper and kid seats in this car?

This car was hit by an SUV which skimmed over the frame rails. Anyone in the rear would be in two pieces. I'm in collision repair and have seen several hits like this. You can see the reinforcement dropped and did not absorb the collision. Tesla had to discontinue the rear facing seats or risk losing their 5 star safety scores. The upper aluminum structure provides no protection to the rear of the shock towers.
