Tesla Model X splits in two after severe accident in Seattle

📍 Not a Tesla App

A Glacier Blue Tesla Model X was involved in a crash in the Seattle area that caused the entire rear third of the vehicle, including the rear axle and wheels, to detach completely. The incident followed contact with a Cadillac SUV, after which the Model X left the road and landed in a ditch. The combination of the heavy battery pack and rotational forces from the ditch impact caused the structural separation. Despite the severity, all occupants were unharmed and the vehicle did not catch fire, highlighting the effectiveness of the crumple zones and rigid cabin structure in passenger protection

🔎 Why it matters: The accident illustrates the structural resilience of the Glacier Blue Model X and the role of crumple zones despite the rear cabin breach.
📈 Upside: Rigid structure and crumple zones protected occupants from serious injury.
📉 Risk: Rear cabin separation could be hazardous for passengers in three-row seating configurations.
