Re: Every electric vehicle has a chance of blowing up spectacularly
Think about an electrochemical battery as an energy storage that resembles explosives or gunpowder in principle: They do not require any oxidiser to release all chemical energy. That is a fundamental difference between a full battery and full fuel tank.

That's garbage clickbait. Might as well write:

Re: Every electric vehicle has a chance of blowing up spectacularly
the Repair Bill for an EV Battery reminds me
that is basically the same thing as buying a Printer
you can buy a Printer for the same or less $ Price as the Printer ink cartridges
and the Printer comes with a ink cartridges in the box
basically buy a new EV or replace it with a Gasoline Car for same $ Price it cost to replace the Battery

Re: Every electric vehicle has a chance of blowing up spectacularly
Again, total BS out of context numbers. Since GM no longer stocks a new Volt battery, the only source is a rebuilder and the dealership doesn't want to be in the middle, so they quote the ridiculous price to make the Volt owner go away. The rebuilder sells the battery for $5,000 but only a one year guarantee. Some like the Volt enough to put another $6k into it; some don't.
Result is many otherwise good Volts wind up scrap.

Hi
mulit story car parks not allowing electric cars in over here , due to this issue , its not made from steel or timber so when theres that sort of damage an insurance co wouldn't step up to a 20--30mil bill , and if you don't know ,putting htem out aint easy , they covered them in full foam , fulled it out a couple of hours later and she lit again they foamed it anagin , it was brought to a scrap yard some how and relit 5 days later , so the rule is they are put in a skip for 7 ays due to reliteing , [ defenitally saving the plannet ]
ferrys are not looking favourabley on them now
