Bounty on CT Monroney Pics

[cvalue13]

To date, this forum has (to my knowledge) seen only a single Monroney off a CT.

Putting a bounty on other images of Monroney, esp those showing VIN and manufacturing date (unlike the one above).

Looking, in particular, to find even a single Monroney to date that displays either crash or EPA data. (The one above also does not.) That likely does not exist yet, but the moment it does…


**Bounty reward: a “ “and the satisfaction of contributing to the improvement of the VIN tracking thread data and inferences

THE CYBERTRUCK’S SITUATION WITH THE IIHS​

The IIHS also has no plans to test the Cybertruck, the organization told us.​

“Automakers do perform their own crash tests to ensure compliance with federal regulations and for internal purposes,” Joe Young of the IIHS said. “Regardless of whether the [Cybertruck] is ever tested by IIHS or for NHTSA’s NCAP program, it will still need to meet federal motor vehicle safety standards, which require certain crash test standards.”​

The Cybertruck has done this, and the recommendation from the NHTSA and IIHS is more or less another nod of confidence for any vehicle that is tested. Tesla has received five-star ratings for its vehicles from the NHTSA in the past.​

Young also said the Cybertruck could be tested by the IIHS in the future. However, that decision will be made after it can assess “the level of general consumer interest in the vehicle.” If it is popular enough, the IIHS may test it.​

yes thanks

aware generally that low volume vehicles don’t get tested (though they can request and pay for being tested)

was less certain, though, if the absence to date was a result of Tesla holding fire on release, it was waiting in line, or - as you’ve pointed out - NHTSA deciding (or being told by Tesla) that the CT will be a sufficiently low volume vehicle for the foreseeable to not be ripe for testing.

Most of the vehicles without ratings are various low-volume models, like sports cars, luxury vehicles, or large trucks/vans. Currently, no Jaguar, Land Rover, or Porsche models are rated by NHTSA or the IIHS.

One might at first think, “oh just like the Cybertruck.”

But basically the reason those aren’t sold is their surprisingly low volumes in the U.S., Jag peaking at 30k/yr in ‘22, the Macan SUV sold 23,688 units in ‘22, the Defender sold 16k in ‘22, etc.

So no, we don’t want CT to be “just like” other low volume models not tested, eventually.
