Linking to the actual test so you don’t have to visit the verge.
What is interesting to me that many failed on the driver monitoring side which to me as a consumer (not a traffic authority) is probably actually a pro not a con. I don’t want my car insessantly beeping at me for dumb reasons. I wouldn’t intend to use these systems without attention but stricter controls will also mean more false positives.
By this logic Lexus, Volvo, Nissan, Mercedes, and even Ford seem great (somewhat depending on the model of the car).
Whats also funny is that the Tesla utterly failed almost all categories except the lane change (and passed emergency). But it can’t even do that unless you’re willing to pay them extra thousands of dollars for the software unlock.
Also some of these cars are from 2021. I imagine there can be a significant difference between these and newer models.
I wonder how Audi is doing. They had a level 3 car coming out a few years ago now. Haven’t heard of it since…
tl;dr: Lexus passed, Tesla failed every test
Tesla had 2 (A) Acceptable scores, but it was the worst of all systems tested.

Saved you a click.
And here are the requirements:
Notice how they do not say anything about the automated driving system itself.
found to be easily tricked and bad at monitoring driver attention
They didn’t even test if the cars could avoid an accident.
I know my car’s adaptive cruise can’t see a white trailer. It figures it’s open sky and accelerates.
I live in the Appalachians and so my commute is twisty mountain roads.
The last car I loaned was a maxima which immediately forgot there was a car in front of me whenever I or the car in front “disappeared” on a turn.
It would also flash tf out of people on turns and hills with its dumb auto highs.
