So your implication is that ICE vehicle
fires are more numerous than EV vehicle
fires? Not fair to make that comparison
when EV’s make up for less than 5% of
the total number of vehicles on the road.
Get back to me when EV’s comprise 50%
and then a fair comparison can be made.
At this point, those here are totally
against a forced transition from ICE to
EV.
Today’s tech cannot possibly compete
with the freedoms ICE vehicles offer
except in limitited controlled circumstance.
I might add...
soak an ICE in seawater...no boom.
soak an EV in seawater....BOOM.
The comparisons are calculated in per 100,000 cars sold.
The 174,000 vehicle fires per year is reasoned to mention as a whole,
because it reveals that ICE cars are a fire hazard as well. It is not
mentioned as a direct comparison to numbers of EV fires for obvious
reasons.
