    I wish you people would actually do a comparison between ICE engine explosions vs. EV explosions.

    Guess what? Firefighters can actually put out ICE vehicles, but they still haven’t figured out a solid way of putting out EV batteries.

    Guess what? When ICE vehicles explode, more often than not they’re already running and there’s some electrical short or something. EV will just as soon explode in your garage while you’re sleeping.

    Guess what? Studies show that since EV’s are way heavier, they wear through tires way faster? Did you know it takes approximately one barrel of crude oil to make an average car tire?

    Guess what? Autonomous vehicles seem to have a habit of getting confused around emergency vehicles and causing wrecks, into the very vehicles meant to save people from accidents.

    Guess what? Lithium ion batteries are typically rated for a max safe temperature of around 40⁰C, while the pavement the battery sits right over can be over 80⁰C

    I’m too lazy to look up links, you’re smart, go Google these things or whatever. All these facts check out.

      I happen to know a bit about the subject and all of your points are misleading to the point of being completely wrong. Except for the point about autonomous cars, which isn’t really a point about EVs at all.

      I don’t need to Google, but telling people to Google to prove your own point is always laughable. But since you didn’t provide any sources, neither will I 😘

      Guess what? You’re wrong on all points. Studies show that you have 5G Corona and should report to Bill Gates immediately.
