And?

25 EV fires for every 100k sold
1530 Gas car fires for every 100k sold.

EV fires occur in 3 out of every 1,000 starts
Gas car fires occur in 1 out of every 10,000 starts

EV fires are responsible for approximately one-third of all car fires in the United States

I take it you don't understand how that statement and the data in the image can be true at the same time

Can you define “starts”? My Tesla doesn’t have a start button.

This seems hard, here's a visual for you to help.

Disingenuous statistic.

How many gas cars out there versus electric ?

At a guess, electric is less than one percent of the total.

Figure out the percentile versus fleet size.

Rocket scientist, you are not !

Go whip your bubble some more.

The original statement was


But anyways to your point



I know sometimes you have to show the same thing over and over again. I had to do the same thing to for a 12 year old.

Disingenuous part 2.

Hybrids are electric cars.

Add hybrids and electric up, and whaddya know - a shit ton of fire versus the ole gas pots.

Get whipped some more.

Y'all act like my wife - argue about selective statistics to no end, good or otherwise.

Thanks for playing.

Its fun to watch all the bickering here over 'stats'.....
Stop and think about it from a logical stand point....

ICE - fire starts from what.... oil leak on to a manifold or transmission leak on the exhaust.... IF you had a fire extinguisher - even a small one - you could put it out when first noticed. Sure - there are 'some' electrical fires that take down the whole vehicle --- but those are more 'manufacturers defects' or poor maintenance/DIY issues.

EV - fire starts from ---- who knows where..... NO # of fire extinguishers is EVER going to put it out!!!! That thing is burning to the ground no matter what.

The stats for ICE cars don't state what the degree of damage is, but the EVs are complete meltdowns.

Do you have any personal experience with lithium batteries?

Careful now - you are talking to a professional website "Influencer" .

Not a very good one, but a legend in his own mind at any rate.

Hybrids are electric cars.

They are also gas cars.

Thanks for playing.


Also the energy potential of 14 gallons of gas is 4.5x higher than 100kwh battery in a Tesla.

You'd have to put out the fire before the car burned 1/4th of the fuel before it did more damage than a battery.

But we all know emergency responders are minutes away when seconds count.

That's ok there won't be many fires once blue states start randomly banning EVs from driving on the roads during "power shortages" the way Switzerland is about to.

Ideological suckers and their lives are soon parted. Enjoy your cockroach jelly.

Imagine buying a smart gun that the government could remotely disable. Wouldn't feel so smart would you? And now there's law for cars.

I think I'll stick with an older gas car, or at least a new one that won't be targeted by rationale of wanting to conserve electricity so anyone caught driving it during a "power crisis" couldn't be arrested or remotely shut down (what would be their rationale for remotely shutting down a gasoline car during a power shortage?).

Not enough tinfoil available to wrap up all the BS government mandated electronics in the new EVs.

Stop buying EVs. If we bankrupt the industry they won't be able to mandate them. Worked well with smartguns and microstamping.

If you want a non-gasoline powered car fine, but get one that's powered by a power source that isn't directly dependent on the power grid and can stand alone. That enables freedom and stops the government from shutting down citizen movement. Our power supply cannot handle even a small portion of the public switching to EVs, even the CEO of Tesla admits that! The government knows that too, and it's not a coincidence they are banning gasoline cars with EVs being the only alternative for a future that looks short on electricity. It all comes down to control and the liberal war on cars and personal freedom. Libtards hate the automobile no matter whether it uses gas or electricity or fairy dust. They want us on buses that they control. They envision a future for America like Paris or London or some other her Euro-peon shithole with high taxes, high costs of living and people who can't get around or live their lives without the blessing of an army of bureaucrats.

The personal automobile has been one of the most empowering and liberating forces for the individual in the history of mankind. Much of our culture is interwoven with it. Don't let the libtards take it away.
