TESLA Model S Crash Test - REALLY Safe??
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ก.พ. 2017
- / @youcartv The 2017 Tesla Model S, a large luxury sedan, earns good ratings in all IIHS crashworthiness evaluations except the challenging small overlap front crash test, in which it earns an acceptable rating. Despite lengthening the side curtain airbags to improve small overlap protection in the Model S, Tesla ran into problems in the test when the safety belt allowed the dummy’s torso to move too far forward. That allowed the dummy’s head to hit the steering wheel hard through the airbag. Measurements from the dummy indicated that injuries to the head, along with the lower right leg, would be possible in a real-world crash of the same severity.
The ratings for the Model S apply to 2016 and 2017 cars built after October 2016. Tesla says it made a production change on Jan. 23 to address the head-contact problem, and IIHS will test the updated vehicle for small overlap protection as soon as it can be delivered.

1:13 Doll boy just speed changed a whole lot of settings on the infotainment system, impressive.
Miley Cyrus came on the radio. He just had to change
I'm not dying to this song!
trefod the hand touching the screen xD
He just had to delete his search history before he dies
Omg i'm dead 😂😂😂
1:13 dummy tried to delete porno videos before he died
Really funny.
everyone is sinful on this planet...and he was speeding too :)
i don't know how you even thought up that shit hahhahahaahhahahalololol
Bargainteers lol😂
LOL you have such an imaginative mind. LOL
Most expensive hydraulic press video on youtube
SIT DOWN, SHUT UP you must be fun at parties
Asamia if he even gets invited to them
Asamia no u
Which the Ford GT broke the hydraulic because of the roof was so strong
These people once crash test a pugani
1:11 omg ................ hes already posting on Facebook
Michael lol
Michael HAHAHAHA
Lol best one!

😂😂😂
0:37 that's one way of opening the windows
Lol
I don't know why but watching these Crash tests are EXTREMELY entertaining to me. You get to see how the design holds up to real world forces. ^__^
@TGTID entertaining are you crazy? This is so cringe-worthy how can someone take pleasure in destroying a 75,000 to 125,000 US Dollar vehicle? What a friggin' waste if you ask me~ =(
these cars really aren't that expensive to make compared to their sticker price. it is jacked up for customers as everything is for the tech field. and it's for our safety! but I hear ya. I used to feel the same way before I started working in the industry. 😁
What do you mean they're not that expensive to make compared to their sticker price? Exactly how much then einstein?
Nothing wrong with enjoying a crash test video. It's not like they're being destroyed for fun. And also what TGTID is saying is that products usually have a low cost of production compared to their selling price which is how companies make a profit. For example, an Iphone 7 costs about $230 to manufacture and sells for $600 - $800. Not sure about a Tesla though.
TGTID they really are, but it's sad seeing many of your favorite cars being destroyed :(
"Tesla says it made a production change on Jan. 23 to address the head-contact problem, and IIHS will test the updated vehicle for small overlap protection as soon as it can be delivered."
That's what I like about Tesla - they're quick to make engineering changes to improve their vehicles right away, instead of waiting for the next model year.
Amen!
good to know! i wish i could get a job in tesla, building the car of the future!
Epic Benjo well it has to do with their model of how they sell you the car. They are built to order so the changes can be made fairly quickly unlike the big auto manufacturers. Which they actually have third party contractors make different parts of the car. It would cost too much money to change just one thing that's why they wait till the next year model.
They also had a problem with their headlights, do you know if they are being worked on too?
And other manufacturers do their homework before they sell their cars to the public.
oh wow...this isnt good for a $100k car...
One fault with the seatbelt
Adam Sandbakken no whole window is broken thats really bad
Passenger cabin stayed the same. Driver hit his head because the seatbelt went to far out.
It doesn't matter, All that matters in a small overlap crash test is the A pillar. As long as there is no intrusion into the body structure, the passenger is safe.
ScioTv what do you expect windows to do. when they do the crush test only the passengers windows popped, yea not ideal. but we dont know how much weight they had pushing against the car at that point. and regardless windows will eventually shatter. Notice the roof (pretty sure that one is the full sunroof) it's impressive it bent that much and didnt shatter. if it did that would have been the most dangerous window to explode both because of size, and because it's right above the driver so shards could have found themselves all over a victim had it broke.
Stop playing with screen dummy man
sanerdk 1:16
He was sent nudes. he had to check them out!
Sadly, 4 Teslas was harmed in the making if this. =( (you monsters... jk, you try to make us safe
Ok
who cleans up all that mess when the test is over?
Mexican.
Prob some mexican this is racist but oh well i'm an idiot
walker h Donald Trump
XD damn
A Mexican janitor that has full benefits and holds stock shares haha and vacation days are paid
That was hard to watch. $$$
True, but better test dummies than real dummies! Wait that came out wrong.. XD
TGTID I am laughing so hard. not insulted at all.
Rochad Andre 😂
Get a life
Less money than for Tesla to get sued from 1 persons death.
I was in a 40 vs 20 mph head on, walled away, airbags are awesome!.... cars were surprisingly totaled
Title says 2017 but the car has 2016 stickers...
J Smith I didn't know crash tests are done after they released into market.
J Smith yes but the stickers mean model year 2016 so Jonne TV is correct
The year is when the car model is released. It's a 2016 Tesla Model S. This was filmed in 2016 obviously, this was filmed before the car came out obviously.
Jonne TV which means it's a 2017 model year
Sometimes when a car is based on the same drive train or the same platform, it would be no point to retest because it would be the same, unless actual changes done to the car safety wise.
2017 Tesla *failed* to receive either the TSP or TSP+ from IIHS; TSP is Top Safety Pick. Whereas several 2017 Mercedes have TSP and TSP+.
D Jaquith the rating will be adjusted once the active safety features are activated and retested.
***** Someone slams into your car or visa-versa your car needs to protect its occupants. Mercedes, Audi, BMW, Ford, Tesla .. etc all have anti-collision options, but it doesn't stop mistakes.
D Jaquith I know but I'm saying that that part of the rating is affected by the active safety and that hasn't been updated yet
***** It was due to the 'Small overlap front' crash m.iihs.org note the front wheel test.
3:02 "Velkom to de hydralik press tschanel"
Lmaoo 🤣
Did anyone notice the front left window coming out entirely in the first crash?
David Costa lol i did now
Me too .
Me
it wasn't even in there.
now that you mention it yes
Damn it guys, stop crash testing them and send me one if you seem to have so many spare!
Dieter Rust *Fuck off u loser*
The next human testing crush will be happen. glad to have insurance accident.
Do you really want a crash test car with no batteries in it?
Are you stupid? The first 3 or 4 of any car are always crash tested for safety. They are dummy cars with no VIN numbers, no ID's, they do not exist. They are made just to crash and then analyze the results.
Dieter Rust me toooo
i don't know what I'm more impressed by, the car crash test, or the music, that was a nice beat.
I lose a part of my soul, as a Tesla lover, watching them recklessly break a few poor perfectly good Tesla.
that's one expensive test. but definitely worth it
Those knee airbags are freaking awesome! I wish all cars had them!!
nowadays they do! youre a wizard!
That is one hell of an A frame. Front crumpled like tin foil absorbing the shock, but barely crumpled at all past the bottom of the windshield.
3:13 relaxing sound
Will it blend?
So satisfying to hear it crumble in that last test! :D
i like that the hazards automatically turned on in the side impact test.
model x: AHHHH WE CANT TEST IT, IT KEEPS ON STOPPING JUST BEFORE THE CRASH!
so the model X talks?
I was like "Damn, those airbags are instant!" and then I realized they actually deploy before the crash and I was like "Damn bro Tesla is lit"
The last test. The hardest to watch. Broke my heart.
I was expecting explosions. Wow. Amazed!
Stiff structure, this is really good! There is no big frontal engine to mess with the driver compartment.
The first test was "acceptable"? He missed the front and the side airbag and hit the corner of the dash.
And the window flying out of the door in full.
Douglas Nunn Windows flying out doesn't affect the driver
@@Asphalt69 yeah until it hits your head at 30mpg and smashes a hole in your skull. That should not happen, ive never seen a window pop out like that.
I just love how shiny they are.
Saw so many ignorant comments in this section. The front of a Tesla is designed to crumple to reduce the g-force during impact.
I thought the Model S was supposed to be the safest car. In the small overlap test, the driver gets to smash their face into the A pillar and the dash? Awesome!
it never was , they didnt do the small overlap test till now
+Rakitha Peiriz It was supposed to be the safest car in the world. That's how it was marketed. A lot of people got Teslas because of how supposedly safe they were.
Safer then most german cars...
It is they disabled the sensors to see the actual crash test if the sensors where enabled the autopilot could sense the car finna crash and would automatically stop and people buy these cars for the tech not the safety
That's so cool lmao
1:10 seat belt doesn't even work
David Paradiso lol
That's weird...
Also noticed that the dummy went way too much forward.
That's why the rating was low. They fixed it with a OTA software update
Tesla really needs to get the 'small' issues sorted. Actually the stories I read are true. In car manufacturing it is much harder to redesign the doors than the engine.
Now you need software for the belts too?
I would fall out the drive side like "MY CAR!! MY BEAUTIFUL CAR!!"
Love how the Driver door window flies up
Not very good ey. It didn't do well in Euro NCAP either.
Agree, I'll stick with my 5-star electric Renault Zoe thank you.
SDav21 a
The Zoe is awesome! That said, if a Model S hits a Zoe, I would want to be in the Model S, as the Zoe will act like a bouncy ball due to weight difference. Both going 60, it will be a 40 crash for the Tesla and 80 crash for the Zoe. The energy going into the Tesla will necessarily be the same as for the Zoe, but the direction change will be a lot steeper on the Zoe, putting more stress on the passengers.
The Model S also has 5 stars (+ in a more recent year) but yeah sure
better than any euro garbage
3:07 ASMR.
i like how one of the headlights shoots out at 2:49
Few questions:
1. Were there batteries in the test vehicle? If there were batteries, were they fully charged?
2. Did the batteries shown any sign of short circuit getting hotter than normal temperature?
You are not allowed to ask those question about "the safest unpowered car in the Universe." Say it! " SAY IT!!!
Yes, I saw the test in person, the batteries were there.
It is not possible to deform a LiOn battery without a violent explosion. If Li contacts 1 atom of oxygen the entire buliding would erupt in a blast you could see from the Moon.
Whats the music in the background
Univers Sensible
BERTYSOLO
It’s bwwweee deeee bbwweee deee dooo
Title: 2017 Tesla Model S
Stickers on car: 2016 Tesla Model S
So
Oh my it is hard to watch that done to such beautiful new cars.
When the side windows break before the Windscreen, never seen that.
On the car it says it's a 2016, but the title says 2017...
Hey YOUCAR,
Just wondering if I could repost this video on my channel?
You can find the original crash test videos on the IIHS youtube channel and compile your own.
Freakish Compilation copy the original jeezus not the bad copy
I was expecting better results!
Would love to see more Tesla videos on your channel! Can we expect one in the near future?
Self-driving mode didnt try to avoid hit the wall. FAILED
LOL!
They attach the car to something and dummy doesent drive
It's off its pulled dummy
2016 model, not 17.
Are you blind, YOUCAR ?
Me:mom can we get gta?
Mom:we have gta at home.
Gta at home:
They look so badass!
How did this car even pass the crash test? The dummies head hits the dashboard almost completely missing the airbag everytime.
Man it’s so hard to watch lol
RotaryKidVideos no it’s too easy to watch bc it’s electric
The car wouldn't be for sale if this didn't happen
@@Hiddenpower6I have a question for you:
Why do people hate electric cars in this way?
I'm not trying to be like "óH yoú dÓnt liKé eleCtríc cáRs? Fúk ofFf thEn"
I'm just trying to know what is that thing some people don't like about electric cars to have both sides of the story.
Thanks by the way.
I love how in the description it says 2017 but on cars it says 2016 lol.
Car crashes
Manufacturers: ah shit here we go again
Still some work to be done, Tesla..
justinwolfe9 the test in 2016 are better because the test they did here was the P100D model which is lighter than the P90D model because of its roof
justinwolfe9 You have my logo
its my logo
The frontal impact was baf
This was not worse then BMW, Audi or MB, they have done their job well................. Audi launhed it front wheel into the drivers feet.
01:12 he wanted to put the music “see you again” before he died 😟☹️😞😭
Yes tesla I agree the airbag look like it was positioned weirdly. But what I like about them is that they are quick to fix things and most times without people asking them to. Now if they can just get refinement and more reliability on point we'll be good. Although reliability is not all that bad just a few places where you wouldn't look we would find mistakes.
This is great, the head on collisions don't even get into the main cabin.
>Title says 2017
>Cars have 2016 written on them
The ratings for the Model S apply to 2016 and 2017 cars built after October 2016. (description)
All the writing say 2016 not 2017
Apres Midi 2017 model year which would be produced in 2016
That side impact rig has some nice rims
Was it a crashtest with or without included batteries?
1:14 what r u trying to reach😂
Billy M his ipad
He's tweeting
Why destroy the car when they can just give it to me?
No
w23857980
You forgot to write your address so they can send it to you.
Are you dumb child
that flying ECU thou @0:33
A.k.a the most satisfying video ever.
Batteries not included so it didn't catch fire. Lol!
Nothing makes me more SAD than watching these Teslas getting smashed....
I like it
You are obviously not a car guy then
@RNR So a car guy likes crashing cars?
what are the walls made of for this tests?
Better than I expected compare to Chev or Ford as American company (which is not veteran in automobile developing)
Didn't perform that well! the safest car around at the moment is the Volvo XC90 2016 onwards.
yes definetely. with no engine tesla easily could engineer a small overlap deflection like the volvo
Jason Moyle no Alfa Romeo Giulia got better ratings
No it did not, alfa = rubbish.
Jason Moyle yes it did look up Alfa Romeo Giulia crash testing
Jason Moyle XC90 scored 97% Alfa got a score of 98% making it better than the XC90
They said at all test good but that didn't look like it can give you any protection
You really proved me with a valid point why Tesla is safe . Thank you!
How did it not give any protection?have you ever seen a crash test with an unsafe car? They completely crumble and the person inside is crushed. Here you see that the whole cabin keeps its shape while the rest outside the cabin crumbles to absorb the energy from the impact and thus minimize the shock. It's doing exactly what you would want from a car.
Structurally sound! But the "disposable" parts vaporized into SAND!!!
In Title It Say (Tesla Model S 2017) 0:54 at roof it says (Tesla Model S 2016) ? Hahaha
P100d is not much heavier. I call it BS
Yeah calling bs on that, Its about 10kg more than a p85d i think... And Tesla is hard to flip over in the first place so its still very safe
Rudolph Xu Can y'all stop being Tesla fanboys
Gav Com yeah man
agree. this means that a fat passenger will fuck up every car,,
Auberge it's has less structure in the roof to reduce weight.
RIP 5 Tesla's..
Those side air bags are good!
Hope those guys are okay x
damn Tesla step up your game first EuroNCAP showed your passenger airbag bottomed out now your seatbelts come on
100,000 dollars down the drain!
Dar Gaming well the most base model is about 65,000
Safety doesnt have a price.
They get it for free
So the slower speed with less overlay actually did somewhat more damage than the 40mph 40% overlay?
Everytime it crashes is like opening a bag of Legos
Safer than a volvo then...
HA
|〉 TARIQ k. 〈| no it isn't look at the facts
ScioTv look at my comment again i was being sarcastic
I hate tesla fanboys
|〉 TARIQ k. 〈| New Alfa Romeo scored better than the XC90 in frontal collision
well it is safer when you include that taking autopilot off for crash testing. These tests have all the safety features turned off so...
Alex Marquette Actually no, Volvo is still safer because of their automatic braking system.
I wonder if there's something political going on? The other testing agency gave Tesla the highest rating ever for a car. What gives?
Shawn Weaver
IIHS has very tough standards compared to others. Even if the car gets rejected by IIHS but gets selected by other agencies, It is allowed for public.
It didn't perform too well in the Euro NCAP either, your insinuations are just making us Tesla fanboys look bad.
James May That's not true…!
It got 5/5 stars even in Ncap test.
U seem to be quite jealous of tesla as you haven't even verified from Ncap site before writing something wrong about it.
+Nivesh K
The majority of cars get 5 stars in the Euro NCAP. Perhaps you are the one who has some "verifying" to do.
It did poorly in the side collision and the pedestrian safety was downright awful.
www.euroncap.com/en/results/tesla/model-s/7897
James May
Well if that's the case then you can't actually say that it performed poorly in NCAP because they rate many cars as 5 stars.
Or maybe i should say, all of the cars rated 5 stars performed poorly in test.
the left glass window did not shatter it just bounced this car is awesome
Why p100D has lower roof strenght? Shouldnt it have best stranght chasis because of power it has?
tfw each of these cars is 100,000
Do you want to die?
Base model is 65k plus they get for free
Only petrolheads finds this satisfying
Well getting in a crash in this thing would be rare to many systems to prevent crashes
How many do they have to provide for all the different tests? 20?
First test "acceptable"
Seat belt didnt even work
Guy missed airbag
Smashed his head to the corner
Yeah pretty good rating system.
in fact it is, when the car was hit in the corner the car was pushed to the side a little bit so, that's why the dummy's head missed the airbag and no, the seatbelt worked if it wasnt there the dummy would go flying, the seatbelt isnt supposed to stop you from moving at all it is just supposed to stop you from FLYING away
Why it's the 2017 model?
2017 Tesla Model S: www.caranddriver.com/news/2017-tesla-model-s-photos-and-info-news

Look at the car grills...
How about this? "In 2016, Tesla updated the design of the Model S to closely match that of the Model X."
You lie.
Tesla makes cars
YOUCAR
YOUCAR cuz its 2017
YOUCAR they have the same grill you idiot don’t you do research
Does the car not have passenger airbags or did it not deploy intentionally
I don't remember where I heard the they had trouble testing some teslas because they would break before impact because of their crash avoidance system till it was disabled
wasnt it the safest car of the world?
what is now the safest car of the world?
Luther Volvo
XC90 is the safest car^
volvo s90 is the safest vehicle ever
s90 is probably the safest sedan, but xc90 is more safe^
