I think this study is incomplete.

Since this study is based on a ratio of accidents vs sold car. Newer cars models have less idle car, helping the statistics of older car models/companies. Given that Tesla and other more price models, will use insurance for minors damage, do to the cost of reparation vs lost sales value.

At Codan, it is Kia's electric cars that top the damage statistics, closely followed by Tesla's and Hyundai's electric cars. Richvoldsen emphasizes that it is Kia's electric cars that top the list, and that the damage statistics do not apply to fossil fuel-powered Kia cars.
