Porsches, Audis, Bentleys, Lamborghinis, maybe others.
Once the first EV gets going, there is no way to put out the fire short of dumping that car in the ocean. And once the fire spreads to the other EVs and gasoline powered cars, the whole load is destroyed.
The amount of smoke in that picture is way more than a single EV could produce.
The crew wasn’t worried about saving the cars. They wanted to save themselves.

But that doesn’t put them out.
Water intrusion ignites those things. The water immersion just isolates the radiant heat from igniting other things near them, like thermite it still burns in water. Lots of steam to dilute the lethal,,, lethal,, nature of the smoke they generate. The lock down order in calif. wasn’t meant to prevent anything other than death by inhalation of toxic smoke while driving to escape the fire danger. Most bad spreading forest fires here cause evacuation orders, but this fire caused a shelter in place order.
A no win situation I admit.
