The i3 turned in a strong performance in the group's four main crash tests?small overlap front, moderate overlap front, side impact, and roof strength.
Where BMW's dedicated electric car came up short was in its head restraints, which the IIHS rates only as "Acceptable," due to their limited protection from whiplash in rear-impact tests.
The IIHS tested only the cloth-covered, manually-operated seats on the entry-level i3.
It also said that the car's headlights rank "Acceptable" and that its available collision avoidance tech is classified as "Advanced."
