The Green National Car Assessment Program (Green NCAP) released a new set of results on Monday focused on three vehicles during this latest round the Tesla Model 3, NIO eT7 and Renault Megane E-Tech. All three vehicles received an impressive five stars under the Green NCAP sustainable rating scheme, achieving nearly maximum scores due to the high energy efficiency of their electric powertrains, far exceeding the ratings of conventional cars.

The Tesla Model 3, with a battery capacity of 60 kWh, single motor, rear-wheel drive and a power of 208 kW is the smallest vehicle of the Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) range and the brands first model to be tested by Green NCAP. The Model 3 achieved high energy efficiency in both cold and warm tests and in the Highway Test, which sees cars subjected to higher speeds. Green NCAP said that the Teslas small frontal area and aerodynamic shape helped with its efficiency, though in a test cycle at colder temperatures did show that when the cabin heating, comfort and battery protection management was activated, consumption shot up by 72 percent.
