The Tesla Cybertruck electric pickup has earned the top safety award, Top Safety Pick+, from the American Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Based on recent crash tests, it is the only pickup to receive this rating.

IIHS regularly tests new vehicles, evaluating them on criteria including protection for drivers and passengers in various collision types. Only models with the best results get the organization's highest awards.

Despite its controversial design and criticism since its debut, the Cybertruck demonstrated a high level of safety in the tests. This has allowed it to stand out among other pickups on the market.

The IIHS results confirm that safety remains a key factor when choosing a vehicle. Against this backdrop, the Tesla Cybertruck can be seen as a benchmark for those reviewing the best vehicles in the pickup segment.
