Just in case you needed another reason to justify buying a sweet Tesla Model S sedan, it just received a 5-star safety rating from the US Department of Transportation. Gorgeous, fast, electric and superbly safe, the Tesla Model S doesn't need space for a traditional engine, so it houses additional crumple zones that can absorb impact. The heavy battery pack also lowers the centre of gravity for a smaller chance of rollovers. This is good news not just for Tesla but for all electric cars in general.
