EV, underground parking garage, high rise condo. Not if, but when.

Try getting insurance.

I’m from South Dakota and travel distances there are long and chargers for EVs are few. Pity the fool driving an EV during a typical South Dakota winter and running out of charge in the middle of nowhere when temperatures are way below zero. At least they might keep warm for a while if their EV catches fire.

Imagine yourself in this situation: it is the middle of winter and a harsh cold front is upon the area with the ambient temperature at about -8 degrees. You are caught in a traffic jam out on the interstate with no exits within reach. Suddenly your EV catches fire.

You now have to chose: stay in the car where it is warm and soon to be very warm, or exit the vehicle and hope someone will allow you access to their auto. If you are a woman this choice is even more difficult as any benefactor could be a serial rapist or killer. Granted the odds are low on that issue but ...

Imagine driving down the highway and your butt starts getting hot. Those people were lucky to get out alive.
