The NHTSA ranks crash safety on a scale of one to five, with five stars being the best, one star being the worst. The Tesla Model S just scored 5.4 stars. Yes. It broke the scale.
Tesla says that the Model S did so well because it scored a five in every single possible category and subcategory. And even though the NHTSA doesn’t have a rating higher than five, it does record when something exceeds the five star level.
