- IIHS: Tesla Model S, BMW i3 fall short in recent crash tests
The Chevy Volt and Toyota Prius Prime are still the safest plug-in picks.
To be an IIHS Top Safety Pick, cars must achieve a "good" rating in the five crash tests, and have an "advanced" or "superior" available front crash prevention system. Having headlights rated "good" or "acceptable" give it the "plus" rating. While plug-in vehicles like the Toyota Prius Prime and the Chevrolet Volt have earned the IIHS 2017 Top Safety Pick+ award, the recently evaluated Tesla Model S and the BMW i3 come up short.
In the small overlap front crash test, the Tesla's safety belt didn't prevent the dummy's head from hitting the steering wheel through the airbag. The IIHS also noted a possible leg injury in that test. Tesla said it would fix this issue in cars produced beginning January 26, so now its IIHS' turn to smash the car up again to see if its rating improves.
Interestingly, the P100D variant only earns an "acceptable" rating in the rollover test. The roof strength is no different from the rest of the Model S lineup, which are rated "good," but the weight of its big battery puts more stress on the structure while shiny-side-down. Finally, its headlights get a "poor" rating from the IIHS.
The BMW i3's biggest shortcoming is in its head restraints. In a rear-end collision, it only gets an "acceptable" rating, which puts occupants at a greater risk of a neck injury. The IIHS laments that the i3 is the only vehicle in the small car category that doesn't get a "good" rating in this test. The i3's headlights also miss the mark, as the only option gets an "acceptable" rating.
"There's no reason that the most efficient vehicles can't be among the safest," says David Zuby, IIHS chief research officer. If you're wondering about the Chevrolet Bolt, the IIHS says it'll obliterate examples of it in the name of safety later this year.

автор, я пожаловался на это видео (жестокие или отталкивающие сцены) так как меня чуть удар не хватил когда я увидел как бьют новую теслу и чуть не умер от зависти :(((
author, I complained about this video (brutal or repulsive scenes) because I was a little pissed when I saw how they beat the new tesla and almost died of envy: (((
Really? no one noticed the poor insect flying on 2:30 ??
i think it was a dragonfly
Blejaci it was a wasp or a bee
Blejaci om

probably was like ofuk ofuk ofuk ofuk fuck me at that moment
The engineering that goes into modern cars is nothing short of amazing. A high-five to all the engineers.
How did you convince the car to hit the barrier in the first place? Lol.
The avoidance solution can be disabled for such experiments. They test it with it on and off as part of their rating process.
The point he was trying to make Zach was the TESLA will avoid the crash... the BMW will not.
classic frog in the pot method, you take out the brains before you heat the water :)
But it was off on the results for some reason.
Bring on hydrogen I say.
Why do so many people keep pointing out it's the model without the auto pilot? It doesn't really matter during a *crash* test...
True...
Whooosh
The ai gotta learn the pain of a car crash. How else can it keep us safe?
Yeah they only test the base models with base equipment
they both suck .. they keep crashing
Attack Helicopter obviously it's a crash test
😂😂
Jordan WHOOOSHHH
Jordan r/woosh
keep burning - ICE cars have fires 75,000 times a year in America.
Didn't expect the BMW to be more safe
Qualität und Sicherheit hat einen Namen BMW
I love how the moment of impact the BMW kept cruising down the road! Meanwhile the Tesla stopped instantly
so just claim the other two cars are better without showing their crash tests?
also why is auto-braking assumed to be safe? i have it on my car and it's extremely dangerous, often braking in situations it has mis-understood to be dangerous (sharp bends and lane-changing of both my car and others into my lane, for example) and put my car and its occupants in harm's way.
ikr, was pretty cringy
Did nobody mention that they jacked up the ratings for safety? I would also like to mention that after this crash tests, Tesla took the negative feedback and made it so that their cars would still remain at a 5 star safety rating in every category, including sub categories.
And this is not 2017 tesla cars, it doesnt have the auto pilot 2.0, this whole video is 2016.
Just look at the labels on the cars. It says 2016, the video title is wrong. lol
Can you read? Appearently not, it says 2017BMW vs 2016 Tesla
Cam Byers they've retested with the new model s (after tesla improvements). they still 'failed' and didn't get the highest score.
Cam Byers the Tesla model S is the safest car in the world with a 5.4 out of 5 stars. No, that was no a typo. 5.4. The tesla model X is the safest SUV in the world and the 2nd safest car in the world. I don’t know about you but Tesla seems to be on a roll.
2 COMPLETELY different cars.
ikr with a year difference aswell
4stars tesla/ 5stars bmw. its a different dead of alive at 20kmh more
@@birkenmaster6454 wasent it 4 star for both
This is not 2017 tesla cars, it doesnt have the auto pilot 2.0, this whole video is 2016.
I agree.
Just a tip. If you copy/paste a comment multiple times it will get detected as spam and not shown to anyone without you even knowing.
In order to earn a rating for 2017, you can pretty much only test 2016 models since 2017 are not yet available, hence the title. Esp. if you are releasing said video early in the year....
ck m The title says ''Vs 2017 tesla model S'', mislead people that thinks that the quality right now are like this, and in the original video they raised the test level for a higher standard, so that was obviously impossible for the company to predict them, in that old model that was tested shown in the video.
so then how does the I3 say 2017.
kor'vre because like a lot of model year cars bmw started production and sales of their 2017 model in 2016. Tesla only sells their cars to represent the year that they are made. Cheers.
I feel the comment about the advanced safety system being an addon is very misleading... The feature is not available on the newer Teslas as the software is not ready (being released this week). All cars ship with the hardware and will have the features even if you don't order the auto pilot feature. Also, the older autopilot cars (AP1) do have this feature and they recently revealed that on its software release for those cars accidents involving the air bags dropped by 40%.
those side impact results are actually very good imho, I highly doubt the prius or volt did better in side impact or offset frontal
Honestly, in the front end collision it looks like there would be less of an impact on the driver in yhe I3
i agree
It's good that they noticed the roof strength for the Tesla, but I would like to throw it out there that it's quite rare for a Tesla to roll over.
Obstacle avoidance seems like a good feature to add to me!
2:15 The airbags on the back seats are to small!!! The head miss the airbag and hits against the paneling and the hard frame structure. Really bad 👎😖
they dint fully deploy pretty sure and if yes tesla 100% made em a bit bigger
Why so hate?the i3 driver says "i only need three whels to get home"
This is NOT a 2017 Tesla. Bias report.
Hhmm, so an organization funded by insurance companies (e.g. zero interest in the results) is biased? How does that work? Also, how do you expect a test run in early 2017 or late 2016 to test a 2017 car?
Then they should not have said that it was a 2017.
I'm a Tesla shareholder and I don't like people badmouthing my company.
Because I don't like insurance companies.
Because Tesla threatens their future profits.
Because if Donald can say anything that comes to his pea brain, so can I.
Because I don't trust YOU.
if you do tests for everything on the market in 2017 then of course they are going to be done in 2016... I have no idea how you would assume anything else. maybe it should have said "Crash test for 2017 line up of e-cars" or something like that for those unfamiliar with how the kind of thing works... I dunno. They are not trying to mislead, they are just used to doing things a certain way.
Boi they say 2017 because this is the most up-to-date car and it's the car that they're making in 2017. And although you have shares in the company, that doesn't mean that it's your company. You have no control over any of the actions or decisions they make. Your stupidity is astounding and very amusing.
the youtuber must've titled it incorrectly as the side of the car was labeled 2016 Tesla Model S
Why did they go with the more expensive paint option to crash. Why not use black Teslas and save the several thousands? lmfao
nambinhvu Well I doubt they pay for the cars, Tesla most likely sent the car to them to be tested. Ask them.
Exactly, why did Tesla send more expensive ones? were they defective?
nambinhvu Idk, maybe it's just what they had in stock? I doubt it would've made a difference what color the vehicle was, but your guess is as good as mine
Ask yourself what the paint actually costs
m1aws it actually costs quite a bit. Why not crash unpainted cars?
i3 win because:
She dont touch the steer airbag
the car go over the wall
the FL wheel save the car for hitting the wall more
I can see you work in IIHS and know your suff.....
Wtf, who is she?
You have to admit, the paint job on the Tesla is fantastic.
The real MVP is the person cleaning all these messes up.
What people love about Tesla is they take these seriously. Improvements aren't made year to year but ASAP. There is a video where a guy. Bought 2 model 3's same year but months apart and shows the differences. Not to mention you can tweet the CEO and get a response. That approach is what is industry shattering.
Oh well, I guess I'll settle with really safe instead of ridiculously safe.
That door skin at 0:25 from the i3, flying guillotine!
Psychlone LAMBO
So where are the Prius and Volt crash photos?
Wait! Where's the crash videos of the Prius and Volt????
Since when doesn't Tesla have front crash prevention ?!
this is a 2016 vid
They disable it either way, so it doesn't matter what year it is
srsly? The BMW has one, it says so right there on the slide...
holo4ever Well the crash prevention is disabled no matter what car it is. Otherwise the test would be obviously pointless
the people commenting its disabled for the test should realize that OP is talking about the spreadsheet at 3:51
Мне кажется, боковой удар БМВ держит лучше, потому что пассажир и водитель ударяются головой об подушки, а в Тесла задний пассажир - об внутренний корпус салона. Голова мимо проходит подушку (не задевает подушку).
02:10 (Тесла) и 02:29 (БМВ).
Why can't BMW figure out how to perform well in the small overlap tests? The 3 and 5 Series (F10) also did poorly in that test.
Tesla and BMW could very easily apply a hard brake as soon as the car hits a frontal collision. Most of the car is electronic anyway. Both their tires were still spinning, propelling the car forward towards the crash!
2:31 from corner up-left, this bug was woken up in the toughest way
Where are the other tests video?
Why do they not show rear end collisions? most of the accidents a self drive car will be in is going to be the car rear ended bye someone.
wrong titel GM guy!
Did anyone notice that, given concrete visual evident in this video, that anyone riding on a Tesla Model S is highly unlikely to suffer from fatal injuries in this particular type of car crash? Good job, Tesla. I appreciate your efforts.
Why the model s side curtain airbag in the back seat so short
Any idea as to why the front wheel is white?
Comparing full sized sedans and city coupes seems odd.....
at 2:32 there is a wasp or something
Also, a guy and his passenger tumbled down a 500 ft cliff and they both walked away with no more than bruises. Tesla is always quick to fix anything it can. They don't really crash in the first place anyway. I don't care if Teslas cause cancer either way. The only thing I want more than a Tesla is 2 Teslas, or the Dragon 2 capsule.
lol the bug fliying in at 2:30
IN THE BACK SEAT BACK SEAT OF THE TESLA AT 2:32 that there was a flying bug in the crash test that came from the upper left corner
Dee 6542 that was the back seat of the BMW i3
Middle lawn alternative full-time agricultural impact gap clock.
I own a Volt Prius and a Tesla (no i3), but come on....No discussion about the obvious effects of having a 700 lbs chunk of aluminum engine block crush your legs in the Volt or Prius?
The only thing they have in common is the plug.
It's like comparing a SMART and an E class Mercedes.
yes, and Tesla is the SMART
what's wrong with the i3 lol? i love it
YES But at What Speed was the Impact ???????
SO how did the the model s got the highest rated safety number (5.4) which isnt possible because it only goes up to 5 stars. And break the test equipment with 4g, and the dummy's inside still intact.
They had to re-evaluate the new test just for tesla.
Edit so did the model X Both from NHTSA
You can't compare these cars because of their differences in size and weight
Comparing a small compact car with s 4 door limousine ? Really ? Tesla fanboys becoming worse than gtr fanboys lmao
cuz that video was made by tesla fanboys, right..
fuk U
Both did amazing 👏👏👏
Okay where's the rear end? I want to see the battery explode
Good company I like them. and good testing. note that pure head on collisions are unlikely and the most likely are these off-angle types..
Furthermore, I am dissapointed at bmw, i mean you can expect tesla to not be as good as they claimed but bmw should have excellent safety being a german car and luxury brand.
back passenger in the tesla is dead lol the airbag curtain did not even go near its head
That moth at 2:30 is thinking what the hell just happened?
I don't like Tesla but it has to be said they do pretty well being new on the market. At BMW, everything is an option. When you buy a 3-series, the seats are bad & there is no support for the head to rest. They are literally punishing you for not buying the 5-series. So no, not quite surprised it's outperformed by 'lesser' brands such as Toyota and Chevrolet. I wonder how the first EV Volvo would perform as in Europe, it is considered among the safest of cars.
Love the sign on the plower thing at 1:36 that shit made me laugh
iihs?
2:29 If you see there's a very - very poor dragonfly dies in a crash
Did you just stole this video from IIHS?
Damn those airbags deploy fast
Quicker than a blink
I want see a old jeep defender in crash test!
0:22
thought that it was ending like a block
The glass on the Tesla is so strong
X-90 so strong ir falls out
I wish BMW And Tesla would make a car together
I have a question, for the front passenger's airbag, there is a dashboard in from of the right. So what happen when the airbag deploys?? Won't the dashboard fly right off to the face of the passenger?? 🤔
No dashboard parts will fly away. They will rip up enough to let the airbag out.
Is it just me, or is there a bug in the video? 2:31
Crashing the BMW is the least of your concerns when it burns down your house.
Enlightening, the BMW i-3 proves to be a CASKET in comparison to the Tesla Model S. Wao I really like that i-3 til I watched this.
It's so painful to see these teslas getting trashed :/
0:29 that car has a self es team heart. I mean look. Just doesn’t stop,
Imagine having your job be watching millions of dollars worth of vehicles being smashed daily.
I like the fly at 2:23
the price difference is to high to compare those 2 vehicules
i think in rather be in the i3!
*Tesla really needs to work on their crash avoidance system...*
the best safety is the man behind the wheel or lack there off. ;)
Looks pretty safe
pretty disappointed at the tesla to be honest , especially given what they have claimed in their big reveals and such
i3 door: *ight imma head out*
Rip Dragonfly
Did anyone notice the bug at 2:32?
These 2 arent even comparable..
whats the point
whats the name of that "song"?

Thank u very much, i have seen it :)
Is he still alive ?
why he lying all teslas have the crash prevention system 😒
Like this one th-cam.com/video/P8CQ6pShc0I/w-d-xo.html
THE SYSTEM IS DISABLED BECAUSE THEY NEED TO SPECULATE HOW SAFE THE CAR IS, OR THE *CRASH* TEST WOULD BE POINTLESS
Of course the system is disabled for the test - but nonetheless the BMW's result page states that there is a prevention system for it, while the Tesla's result page says crash prevention isn't available.
wow, you idiotic statement just blow my mind
Mate its just like Tesla said themself, its not a goddamn automatic pilot. You need to keep you eyes on the road, sure it helps and stuff like that. But it won't be able to predict weird roads and retarded drivers. Sure it will be the fault of the retarded driver, but you might be left with destroyed legs or something.
Soooo... Who Won?
That's not the point.. They're different sizes anyways. The point is to see how a small EV and a long EV perform in crash tests because there's not much in between the very front of the vehicle and the driver.
How much is that type of tesla
The Tesla is a really safe car, very impressive as they are a relatively new brand.
Bmw seems safe
Sandal Basotra yea but that telsa isn’t even the 2017 one it doesn’t even have auto pilot. If it was the 2017 telsa it will prevent that from happening
Doughy_ De doggo That’s not the point of a crash test you moron.
Doughy_ De doggo How much of an idiot are you? They don’t let the cars just avoid it that would literally ruin the whole point of a “crash” test! Seriously are you six?
jesus christ tesla fanboys are getting desperate
lol no car is safe to the occupant, the environment or a pedestrian jack off !
In the first test (i3) nope! Still goin
This has the feel of a paid commercial for Chevy...
so not telling me the speed orr
Background music too loud and anoying
lol the door just sliced on the bmw 0:18
the conclusion is that electric cars due to absence of an engine as we know it, in case of impact are becoming 80% trash and the passenger isn't that safe in the cabin!
i3 had left the crime scene
I feel so bad for these cars :(
