There's a million hidden variables here that could explain the difference: - The mechanical state of the car (Teslas with autopilot tend to be new/newish vehicles, and thus in excellent mechanical shape) - The age and competence of the driver - I'm guessing people who make enough to buy a Tesla are usually not senile 80 years olds or irresponsile 18 year olds - Other security gizmos in Teslas that cheaper cars may lack Overall, it would be more fair to compare against cars of similar age and at similar price point.
