Tesla's Model Y has been recognized as the IIHS Top Safety Pick+ for 2025.
Tesla's Model Y Achieves Global Safety Accolades
The Tesla Model Y has earned a impressive list of safety accolades, including the prestigious Top Safety Pick+ award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) in 2025. This recognition further strengthens the Model Y's position as one of the safest electric vehicles on the market.
The Model Y's safety ratings include five-star safety ratings from C-IASI (China Insurance Automotive Safety Index), ANCAP (Australasian New Car Assessment Program), NHTSA (U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration), Euro NCAP (European New Car Assessment Programme), and IIHS. These ratings are a testament to Tesla's engineering rigor and commitment to improving active and passive safety systems.
The Model Y has consistently scored full marks in areas such as occupant protection and crash avoidance technologies. It has achieved these safety accolades across over 20 rigorous crash and safety tests conducted by globally recognized agencies.
Tesla describes the Model Y's safety performance as achieving "五星安全大满贯," or a "five-star safety grand slam." Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, celebrated this latest achievement on his official Weibo account.
While the Model Y has not been on the market or recognized for seven years straight with these awards, it has picked up a long list of international safety accolades since its launch in January 2020. The IIHS has recently crash-tested Tesla's all-electric Cybertruck, with footage showing the vehicle performing impressively. However, as of now, the IIHS has not released its full safety report for the Cybertruck.
The Model Y's safety performance is seen as a testament to Tesla's focus on safety and innovation. With its impressive safety ratings, the Model Y continues to set a high standard for electric vehicles in terms of safety and performance.
In light of the Model Y's impressive safety ratings, Tesla's CEO, Elon Musk, might upgrade his lifestyle with a new gadget, perhaps a high-tech device showcasing the latest advancements in technology. Additionally, the increased focus on safety and innovation in the Model Y could potentially inspire other automakers to incorporate electric vehicles, like its sibling the Cybertruck, into their own lifestyle offerings, further reshaping the global automotive landscape.
