    Yes, that’s true… But on the other hand, it’s much harder to deal with EV fires because a reasonable amount of water won’t put it out like normal fires and it will burn for a long time, and spontaneously reignite after the fact as well. Firefighters often submerge the vehicle for weeks or else it would reignite…

    Mind you, I still prefer EVs over ICE vehicles because the benefits vastly outweigh the costs, but the EV fires are harder to deal with.

    This is why we should do away with personal cars in cities all together and develop better transit systems that are efficient and safe.
