Have you been able to find safety statistics for pedestrian collisions? I tried looking them up, but was unable to find any.
Naive comparisons like "the hood is lower" are not enough to make this kind of statement, as the remaining differences (sharp angles and a very different material) are too large to make this determination without actual testing.

- Timon3 2y agoI haven't been able to find any. What absolutely shocked me is that even in America, apparently there has been no such test done by anyone besides Tesla. How did you come to your earlier assessment? Did you ignore the differences in material and sharp angles? I'm not well-versed in the area, but it seems more than reasonable that they have an impact on the outcome of pedestrian collisions.
