In the event of an accident, what happens to the 2007 Pontiac that doesn’t happen to a newer EV?


I didn't even have EVs in mind specifically. I'm just fairly sure most new cars are safer than most 17 year old cars.


There are some significant engineering advantages to not having an engine. The crumple zones are overall more effective.

The Vibe isn't bad at all, though. I wouldn't switch just for safety ratings.


It is hilarious that this gets downvoted, when it is very obviously true. I might as well say the sky is blue. :)
