Video: Tesla Model 3’s IIHS Crash Test

The 2019 Tesla Model 3’s crashworthiness received a very positive review from Insurance Institute for Highway Safety after being put through a litany of tests.

In particular, the Institute called out the Model 3’s performance in its “most challenging” crash test, the driver-side small overlap front test.

While it’s hard to watch a Tesla smashed to bits, a video of the Institute’s test shows the Model 3 seemingly keeping the test dummy from significant harm. That’s certainly encouraging for owners.

Watch the video of the test above.
