” How much faster would it have caught fire than the current Tesla deathtraps?”

Everyday over 500 ICE cars spontaneously ignite!

“At least with internal combustion power, one can estimate just what the actual range would be by fuel levels and traffic conditions.”

EV’s have a computerized display.

How many ice cars are there out there vs hybrid and electric cars. You’ll find the chance of an ice car combusting are significantly less.

Computers will give faulty data if their sensors are wrong. Too many Computers are the reason I tow so many new cars with “keys not detected”
Computers can and have been programmed to display faulty data.

At least if my jeep says its got half a tank, unless the wire is broken, its got half a tank

Where did you get that statistic?

If that were the case, I would have seen at least one during my lifetime, but, I haven't.

Now, with at least 95% of vehicles (worldwide) being the ICE variety, I'd say that 500 burning cars per day is a pretty good safety record, that is, compared to how many EVs would be burning on a daily basis if they had 95% of the vehicle market.

How does that compare percentage-wise to the number of electric cars out there?

A computerized display relies on GIGO.
