关于特斯拉汽车的安全性，已经有很多说法，尤其是当使用自动驾驶仪Autopilot或启用特斯拉全自动Tesla Full Self-Driving驾驶时。Cambridge Mobile Telematics (CMT) 最近的一项研究对电动汽车风险提供了难得的见解。一个有趣的发现是，特斯拉司机在驾驶特斯拉时比在驾驶其他汽车时更安全。

驾驶特斯拉时，驾驶员发生车祸的可能性降低百分之五十

CMT 最近的研究为电动、混合动力和传统车辆的驾驶风险提供了一些有趣的见解。该研究表明，电动汽车的驾驶员特别容易面临加速风险，比驾驶传统内燃机汽车时高出 180% 到 340%。这听起来很吓人，但考虑到当今电动汽车的强大加速性能，这很正常。

电动机提供即时扭矩，而 ICE 则需要在达到峰值扭矩和功率之前“踩油门”。当市场上的大多数电动汽车比其燃烧等效汽车更强大时，这一点就更加明显。这使得普通司机，尤其是那些脚很“重”的司机，经常错误地计算所需的加速量。

其中最令人兴奋的发现是对同时驾驶电动汽车和内燃机汽车的司机进行的比较。这有助于更好地了解不同车辆平台的风险。研究人员对特斯拉司机特别感兴趣，他们并没有失望。

CMT 的研究发现，与驾驶其他车型相比，特斯拉司机撞车的可能性要低百分之五十。该研究没有说明这是因为司机更负责任，还是因为特斯拉有一些东西让他们天生更安全。

这仅适用于特斯拉司机，不适用于其他电动汽车司机。就保时捷 Taycan 司机而言，当他们驾驶 Taycan 对比驾驶另一辆车时，他们发生车祸的可能性实际上要高出百分之五十五。

Drivers Are Less Likely to Crash When Driving a Tesla Than When Driving Other Cars: Study

A lot has been said about the safety of Tesla cars, especially when they are driving on Autopilot or with Tesla Full Self-Driving activated. A recent study by Cambridge Mobile Telematics (CMT) gives a rare insight into EV risks. One interesting finding is that Tesla drivers are safer when driving their car than they are when driving another.

Drivers are 50% less likely to crash when driving a Tesla

CMT’s recent study has offered some fascinating insight into driving risk for electric, hybrid, and traditional vehicles. The study has revealed that the drivers of electric cars are particularly exposed to acceleration risks. These are 180% to 340% higher than when driving traditional combustion vehicles. It sounds scary, but it’s pretty normal, considering the strong acceleration performance of today’s EVs.

Electric motors deliver instant torque, as opposed to ICEs which need to rev up before reaching peak torque and power. This is even more obvious when most electric vehicles on the market are significantly more powerful than their combustion equivalents. This makes the average drivers, especially those with a heavy foot, often miscalculate the amount of acceleration needed.

Among the most exciting findings are the comparisons between drivers who operate both an electric vehicle and an internal combustion vehicle. This allowed for a better understanding of risk across different vehicle platforms. The researchers were particularly interested in Tesla drivers, and they were not disappointed.

CMT’s research found Tesla drivers are 50% less likely to crash their electric vehicle than if they were driving another car. The study does not say whether this is because the drivers are more responsible or the Teslas has something that makes them inherently safer.

This goes for Tesla drivers only, not other drivers of electric vehicles. In the case of Porsche Taycan drivers, they are actually 55% more likely to crash when they are driving the Taycan than when driving another car.
