The only Tesla scored on autonomous assist features by NCAP was a 2020 Model 3 and it scored pretty poorly.

You can look it up below just select Tesla as Make: https://www.euroncap.com/en/ratings-rewards/assisted-driving...

What you are referring to is safety rating, which nobody is disputing, however, it did not prove "vision" superior. The car is safe for sure but it wasn't because of vision but of structure.

Vision replaced front facing radar for AEB and TACC (traffic aware cruise control). The safety tests including automatic emergency braking, which Vision provides signal for with regards to forward travel. Automated lane changes were always Vision.

You can confirm the transition did not have a material impact on Autopilot safety using their data: https://www.tesla.com/VehicleSafetyReport
