Summary –Product Impact Topic Description Page(s) Product Affordability Model 3 is price competitively with ICE equivalents. But, when compared on a total cost of ownership basis, the (Price Equivalency & Model 3 is much closer to a Toyota Camry on all-in cost per mile than to an ICE equivalent such as a BMW 3 77 - 78 Total Cost of Ownership) Series. Our data shows that Tesla vehicles are being driven more than average vehicles in the U.S., suggesting that they Product Usage & Usability are generally being used as a customer’s primary vehicle. The superior range of our vehicles and a robust global 79 - 80 Supercharger Network makes this possible. At Tesla, safety features are not optional. Our full suite of safety features comes standard with every vehicle. Vehicle Safety When we design vehicles, first and foremost, we want them to be safe. Our active safety features are powered by 81 – 84 eight cameras, a neural-net computer and learnings from our fleet of over two million cars. In 2021, we recorded 0.22 crashes for every million miles driven in which drivers were using Autopilot technology Autopilot Safety (Autosteer and active safety features). For drivers who were not using Autopilot technology (no Autosteer and 85 active safety features), we recorded 0.77 crashes for every million miles driven. By comparison, NHTSA’s most recent data shows that in the United States there are 1.81 automobile crashes for every million miles driven. Data Driven Safety Tesla strived to go beyond industry standard testing. We leverage data from our fleet of over two million cars to 86 - 87 better understand accidents and build solutions around them. Passive Safety & Tesla Safety Awards Since 2019, Tesla vehicles earned 5-star ratings from safety rating agencies across the U.S., Europe and Australia. 88 - 89 From 2012 to 2021, there has been approximately five Tesla vehicle fires for every billion miles traveled. By Fire Risk comparison, data from the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and U.S. Department of Transportation 90 show that in the U.S. there are 53 vehicle fires for every billion miles travelled. Pairing energy storage with renewables is required to transition our grid to zero-emission sources. In 2021, in Solar + Storage Products order to meet demand that is well in excess of supply for energy storage products, Tesla began building a new 91- 92 production facility capable of producing 40,000,000 kWh of energy storage per year. Electric grid disturbances in the U.S. have increased dramatically over the last 15 years. Our solar and storage Resilience of the Grid products not only deliver cost savings and energy independence, but they also harden the grid from adverse 93 events in a cost-effective and environmentally friendly manner. 120
