Yes, you are only proving my point. That EV had nearly a full minute starting from when it began smoking to when it caught on fire. It didn’t explode, but caught fire underneath the car because that’s where the battery is. It only looked like an explosion because the bright flames in a dark garage caused the crappy security camera to go white as it adjusted to the lighting change.

A gas car catching on fire is much more dangerous. It instantly engulfs the car and spreads quickly because the fuel is not a large battery underneath the car but flammable liquid all under the hood of the car and just behind the dashboard. The fire can easily get into the cabin and quickly burns the car from the inside out.

I’m not denying that EVs can catch fire. They catch fire as often as the phone in your pocket does. I do notice that most of the EVs catching fire online that I found seemed to be Teslas. There’s something to be said about that as Teslas are the most common EV on the market compared to any other EVs meaning there’s alot more eyes on Teslas. I personally drive a Nissan Leaf and it hasn’t caught fire since 2014 when it was made. The point I’m making here is that if a gas car and an EV both catch fire, the EV’s fire will give you time to escape and will be less deadly than a gas car’s fire. And gas car fires are more common and happen more often than there are EV fires, see for yourself:

“According to MSB data, there are nearly 611,000 EVs and hybrids in Sweden as of 2022. With an average of 16 EV and hybrid fires per year, there’s a 1 in 38,000 chance of fire. There are a total of roughly 4.4 million gas- and diesel-powered passenger vehicles in Sweden, with an average of 3,384 fires per year, for a 1 in 1,300 chance of fire. That means gas- and diesel-powered passenger vehicles are 29 times more likely to catch fire than EVs and hybrids.”

“Not having an engine and its accompanying mechanical systems might actually reduce the risk of a vehicle fire. According to the NFPA, the leading cause of vehicle fires is mechanical failure or malfunction, accounting for 45 percent of all such fires. Electrical problems are a distant second, accounting for 23 percent of the total. Not having gasoline, hot exhaust, and controlled explosions on board significantly reduces the possible ways for a fire to start.”

Keep in mind if a EV battery catches on fire, it doesn’t actually explode and takes a while to actually consume the car. If a gasoline engine catches fire, 100% explosion risk and you may actually die when the car becomes engulfed in flames.
