Tesla caught on fire while the driver was on Highway 50 in Rancho Cordova Fire officials said that nothing was wrong with the car before it combusted
Firefighters used 6,000 gallons of water to extinguish a Tesla Model S that spontaneously burst into flames on a busy highway outside of Sacramento on Saturday.
The driver, who was not injured, was on Highway 50 in Rancho Cordova at around 3pm when smoke started to come out from the front of the car.
Photos of the luxury car showed the vehicle completely totaled with the front end of completely burnt.
Officials responded to the scene with two fire engines and a water tender. The Metro Fire of Sacramento crew said that nothing was previously wrong with car.
The horrific blaze wasn't the first Tesla S fire that Metro Fire of Sacramento officials had to extinguish.
A white Tesla model burst into flames in a Rancho Cordova wrecking yard in June after the car had spent weeks sitting there after a collision.
Firefighters arrived at the wrecking yard to find the Tesla fully engulfed in flames. Each time the firefighters attempted to extinguish the flames, the Tesla's battery would reignite the fire.
The fire department posted an Instagram video of the ordeal, saying that even when firefighters moved the Tesla onto its side to spray the battery directly, the car would burst into flames again 'due to the residual heat.'
Eventually, the firefighters dug a pit near the Tesla and moved the burning car into it and then filled the pit with water, 'effectively submerging the battery compartment.'
The technique worked, and the fire department was able to put out the fire with no injuries and 4,500 gallons of water used - about the same amount of water used for a building fire.

“Wonder what the insurance companies think about this?”
Insurance has got to sky rocket for EV’s as well as limitations on where they can be parked, etc. This will not sit well with the lefties and they will likely mandate be law that insurance premium costs be averaged out so that ICE vehicle owners pay their “fair” share.
Our electricity company has no solar or wind BS production equipment. However our rates have skyrocketed because of this averaging BS, or so a company rep told me.
The goal of socialism is to spread the misery, and that practice is in high gear no matter where we look.
The evidence is in EV cars cause climate change.
Liquid nitrogen, lots of it. Would be a spectacular display of fire fighting, but be sure to bring your air packs.

EVs need to be pioneered and "domesticated" imo.
In the meanwhile, beware of Democratic "one size fits all" remedies to what are probably government-manufactures crises imo.
In other words, I wouldn't be surprised if elite Democrats are working in cahoots with corrupt CEOs to force consumers to by profitable junk science remedies for government-manufactured crises.

You get it! Dump a ton of concrete on the flamer and a ton of sand. Bury it! It worked in Chernobyl.
That’s absolutely clever...the car one..not the one boinking the guy. LOL. The car actually moved when it was hit by the water.
The best way to deal with it is get a bull dozer and dump a couple loads of dirt on it.
Or just let it burn, then use the bull dozier to pick up the blob.
The car was absolutely crushed by the water but that still wouldn’t be enough to put out the battery fire. My point is the whole thing is just absurd.
I agree wholeheartedly. Others are waking up...
