EVs are powered by electricity mostly created by the burning of fossil fuels:

And pray to God it doesn't catch on fire. And if it does, pray the EV is not parked in your attached garage.

Imagine waking up at 3:30AM and discovering your house is on fire caused by your EV parked in your attached garage spontaneously combusting. Might cause some interesting challenges for the insurance company.

The state of California cannot be acting more foolishly. The dangers of electric cars make the topic a non-starter. They’ll put gasoline and deisel car manufacturers out of buiness and the factories non-functioning. That is the plan. To bring the West to its knees.

"increasing costs to the insurance industry by more than £600million, which could be passed on to drivers"

"could be passed on to the drivers"

COULD???

“The Daily Mail has launched a campaign”

The time to do that was when they were first subsidized. Too late now, the eco scam has been successfully sold and the money is pouring in.

Like the vax the
So call cure is actually the problem.
Dogs must be vaxing by edict to prevent what, them getting sick and passing it on to other unvaxed dogs or unvaxed dogs from endangering them?
Kind od begs question of vax effacy. Sounds familiar flip and flop.

How much “carbon” does an EV produce when it is burning?

Pintos were susceptible to exploding, and were taken off the market I be,eive in short order (though the ones that were bought were still used). But no matter how many fires, lives lost due to the asinine ine electric car push, they will likely never remove them from the market

Easy. No sane mechanic will work on the things. Let the EV worshippers go to the dealer and spend $500 an hour plus $1000 a day storage fee. These stupid cars are disposable. The battery tech will MAYBE last 8 years. My old beater is 22 years old now and still only needs the usual consumable and oil changes. After 22 years one would have already been forced to buy 3 EVs. And wait until everyone is charged a “recycling fee” that costs more than the batteries do.

Good times...

We’ve all seen videos of intensely burning EVs. Now imagine passengers trapped in a wrecked EV that starts burning.

It’s only a matter of time.

EV vehicles are the dumbest idea of the century.

Broken on every level.

Eventually, you’re not going to be able to park them in public garages, because they are simply time bombs waiting to go off.

Two More Hyundai Kona EVs Burst Into Flames, Raise Concerns

This month, two reports of Hyundai Kona EVs spontaneously bursting into flames have emerged, one from South Korea and the other from Norway

Last year, Hyundai had issued a worldwide recall for the Kona EV, involving almost 77,000 units of the electric SUV. The recall was due to a fire hazard, and the manufacture replaced batteries and related components on the affected cars. However, the woes don’t seem to have ended there, as more reports of Kona EVs spontaneously combusting are emerging internationally. On June 18, a Hyundai Kona EV went up in flames unprompted in Boryeong, South Korea. As per local news reports, the vehicle was parked and not plugged into a charger when the fire started. Hyundai and LG Energy Solution have stated that they are investigating the cause of the fire, together with Korea Automobile Testing & Research Institute (KATRI).
