We examine the fire safety with electric vehicles after a 2022 Tesla Model 3 struck an object in the roadway, causing the battery pack to catch on fire.
Electric vehicles are less likely to catch fire, but when they do, they are more difficult to contain.
From my god damn video: EV literally exploding upon jumping a curb.
This is a simple fact that we have video evidence of. You can try to misdirect or misrepresent facts, but we all know that gasoline tanks (outside of the lol Ford Pinto) weren’t as explosive as this.
Red Lithium frames just fractions-of-a-second after jumping the curb.
You’re the one who is trying to call “Literally more deaths than the Ford Pinto” a one off scenario.
Because the Ford Pinto didn’t lock its (electronic) doors when it caught on fire. At least people could ya know, open the door when that car started to explode. Its a bit different with Teslas and their electronic-only deathtrap.
But these are known facts over the years. Tesla ain’t changing their doors, Tesla ain’t changing their (explosive) chemistry. Etc. etc. But the stats continue to come in. These are relatively common occurrences (more common than Pinto at least) and more deadly to boot once all the data is tabulated up due to the shoddy door design of Tesla.
Because as it turns out: when the battery is on fire, electronics tend to stop working.
Stop pretending that there isn’t a fire problem. Li-ion fires continue to grow across the country, be it shitty Vaping devices, crappy scooters or yes, even Tesla cars.
The sooner we stop lying to ourselves, and others, the better we can move and prioritize safer technologies whenever they do appear.
Okay, then stop your bullshit. You’ve been proven wrong with statistics over and over again, your only argument is “well this one time”, and you refuse to listen to facts or the arguments from the other side.
You’re wrong, restating your info over and over does not make you any less wrong, and your attitude towards it is wrong.
Oh wow, besides the website being clearly biased I found serval additional flaws:
it’s a generic Tesla products list, there are several power walls on there. Last I checked, they’re stationary and don’t contain humans
it does not list cause of death. “crashing into trees” has a tenancy to kill people before any fire even starts.
without following the links, it’s impossible to try and assertain how long it took any particular fire to start. Gasoline vehicles tend to immediately ignite, EVs tend to give you a bit of time before a fire starts.
Also, “locked the doors is false”. The doors were never locked, but it is in fact an issue that most people don’t bother reading the manual to find where the manual release is on the door. I will also agree that it’s not the most obvious placement, and has no labels.

It’s not that they are easier to catch fire. It’s that they ARE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO EXTINGUISH AFTER CATCHING FIRE. Dumbass.

I just want the bullshit to end.

Its not one time. There have been hundreds of fatalities as Tesla crashed, caught on fire, and locked the doors (because the electronics failed).
There have been even more fires, such as the case I posted earlier where they fortunately escaped alive. But not everyone is so lucky.
