  1. And a cornering acceleration of what? 0.01 G?
    77
  2. Ricing has nothing to do with the engines, it has to do with the cosmetic mods to the cars...
    33
  3. Depends on the drag coefficient and frontal area of the car in question!
    28
  4. Don't forget to keep the power, that is the tricky part.
    23
  5. No, it's still just mass and power....
    22
  6. Missed The workshop?
    16
  7. Nick Martin He is right, the fastest I found was 1.57 seconds to 300km/h
    7
  8. No no no, just a remark, the motors don't die out, the battery cells in the P100D is optimized for Capacity not power output, so they get too hot during a full acceleration, that's why ludicrous mode only works for about 2-3 min of full load!
    5
  9. VTEC with an infinite amount of lift change.

  10.  @itsm3th3b33  Funny, passed 9 courses in physics with flying colors... You are just mad large diesels are slow. Let me let you in on a secret, they are slow beacuse of efficiensy and reliability ;)

  11. It has a fancy hydraulic clutch (torque converter) for accelerating hard at slow speeds. It turns 1000 rpm at 30 mph but can slip and turn faster :) So the ECU does that automatically considering wheel slip and so on :D Pretty cool ey?

  12. Avarage height of a Japanese man is 170.7cm or 5 feet 7 inches
    3
  13. Roots style air heater you mean? The air is about 70% warmer from that thing compared to a screw style superscharger...
    3
  14.  @itsm3th3b33  Electric motors win 0-60 because they don't need to shift and the Tesla has 2 motors, which gives better grip due to no central diff. Further electric motors are easier to modulate to achieve more grip. Torque is still meaningless, otherwise drag racers would talk torque and not HP, HP is what moves the car, torque and RPM are just numbers.
    3
  15. No, that is determined by how heavy the vehicle is and what gear you're in!
    3
  16. Chad W Well 95% of the world use km/h so I`d guess that xD
    2
  17. And that makes it bad how?
    2
  18. Very interesting! But as a road car already is really out of internal space i see it hard to achieve without making the car an extra 3-4 feet longer :P
    2
  19. It wouldn`t be as economical as an I4 as the surface area of the cylinderwalls are greater than in an identical displacement I4. Though it would make more power than an I4 if you made it rev to 12 000 rpm
    2
  20. If you have a flat torque curve the power increases linearly. If you have a very rough torque curve the power comes on rough
    2
  21. Nicolas Losito If you want imidiate response they should buy an electric car lol, combustion engines always lagg :P
    2
  22. It doesn't have a transmission in the more common term as in a shifting gearbox :P But yea, it has a "technically correct" transmision
    2
  23. ICE+Torque converter+Electric motors=love
    2
  24. Only `murican cars messure HP in BHP...so drivetrain losses are not an issue :)
    2
  25. No no no, the torque is defining how much work is being done in one revolution...HP is how much work is being done... A 0nm 250HP engine would only produce 250HP if you spun up the engine to infinity.
    2
  26. cphank151 And if it is at say 10cm away that is (0,1m)/(340m/s) which is 0,00029 seconds, or 0,29 ms, at 10000rpm the piston takes about 30 ms for one stroke, so only 2% of that time would be activation time :) Pretty dope! And if they get the distance down to say 3,3cm it would be 0,66% :D and at 7500rpm that would be 0,49% There is more than enough! Even if the activation time where 10 times slower it would be a significant upgrade! And at low RPM it would be practically open for the whole stroke.
    2
  27. The clutch turns fluid (like a propeller) and then a opposing impeller (like a generator) drives the drive shaft :) Almost all automatic transmissions uses them. The Electric engines supports the engine and can deliver almost 700HP from really low RPM! And they one directly linked to the gas engine itself functions as the start motor and a generator :) Really amazing stuff! And only around a 100 kg weight penalty for the system :D
    2
  28. marksuave25 No problem man :), they like to stirr the pot you know, engage in hostile discussions and such. That comes with the anonymity of the internet :P Just ignore them or block them :)
    2
  29. LucasAndAGuitar sigh You haven`t seen alot of african american children haven`t you? And I guess you don`t understand genetics either...there are many genes for how much melanin you produce in your skin, and depending on how the fathers and mothers DNA matches there can be many different shades of skin color...
    2
  30. That is not a production car then now is it? That would be a dragster type of car :P
    2
  31. You mean Volkswagen? No way they would compete with their own Bugatti....
    2
  32. Which don't help.
    2
  33. But are you running efficiently? How much HP/Liter? How much HP/KG?
    2
  34. There are V16s too ; ) If you have the DLC
    2
  35. No, un-intercooled roots make only 10-30% more power, with a screw type and intercooler he could make 100%+ if the block can handle it.
    2
  36.  @BlueDually4x4  the top fuel deagster could surely pull more than the semi truck engine...
    2
  37. A unengaged clutch don't produce any losses.
    2
  38.  @craigdavis5498  It still uses a turbine to reclaim energy from the exhaust, it just also stores it in a battery to help spool it up later quicker.
    2
  39. No, discharging is a whole different chemical reaction, that depends on the cathode material, amount of conductor material internally etc. Most often for the same degradation you can discharge 3-10 times faster than you can charge them
    2
  40. That's why it's so frustrating, trucks have high torque numbers because they need to be efficient, not because they need to pull stuff! Change the gears in a truck and swap in a Turbo V6 with 600 HP and it will go all day (won't last as long as a semi engine but still). And besides, just beef up the frame you will get a heavier vehicle, easiest upgrade ever! Out with the welder!
    2
  41.  @alexstromberg7696  Then why does the M1 abrams tank have a Engine with 475 ft/lbs of TQ @10,000 rpm and 1500 HP @30,000 RPM? Because HP is all that matter
    2
  42. Without RPM you won't move at all.
    2
  43. When will you stop thinking propaganda is true?
    2
  44.  @derekturner3272  So you are avoiding the question, so we are on that kind of denial level, got it. Seek help.
    2
  45. But math is fun when you get it! Worth every second if you love a subject to learn the math behind it!
    2
  46. If you can get it to fit with a new transmission and all, yea, why not?
    1
  47. ChinnuWoW And using your social intelligence is a crime?
    1
  48. ChinnuWoW You know that 80% of the message is lost due to it only being in text...and I know he meant it in a negative manner...
    1
  49. ChinnuWoW No reason? Oh, yea, just ignore his tantrums about how this wont work and how shitty it is O.o
    1
  50. ChinnuWoW No it is not.
    1
  51. ChinnuWoW How is it irrelevant? They are about the same subject, by the same person...they are very much relevant in inturpetating his comment!
    1
  52. ChinnuWoW ?
    1
  53. yea right...they would have jumped on it long ago then and made billions...Ford is just as lazy as any other none koeningsegg manufacturer :P
    1
  54. Marc Monson Maybe because they would have an engine with 30% more HP than the competition...
    1
  55. What is cooler?
    1
  56. The longer the stroke is the lower the redline will be! A 4 Liter I4 would get horrible power ratings! A 2 liter V8 would get good power ratings as it could have a redline of around 10krpm, but would be complex and expensive to make!
    1
  57. It is a mid engined car
    1
  58. Turbos outlast the car, N/A engines usually rev higher, that means more maintenance. And the throttle response is not that much beter in a N/A engine, I`ve tried both and Turbos are just more fun :) The power surge is so fun when moving up into higher RPMs :D And then you have all the wonderfull sounds it makes <3
    1
  59. Robert Hancock But way less boost than a turbo ;)
    1
  60. You`ll grow to love it when you find actual practical use for it ;) Believe me!
    1
  61. Torque is not a problem if you have a smooth power line in a broad RPM range, for example a Turbocharged car who has good power from 2750RPM through 7000rpm, that is certainly enough to accelerate an automobile...Torque is just a number, just take a look at the power curve, then you know whats up! Then you do some calculations if you have a broad enough powerband to play with.
    1
  62. ***** hmmm how come most rally drift cars are turbocharged? Maybe because they use anti-lagg and modern turbos ;) Thing you old fella wouldn`t know about! Now down the track or everyday road the lagg is not a problem as you can predict it on known roads and tracks, it is only when you drive on an unknown road you might be a bit slower.
    1
  63. It will only affect power and efficiency. Nothing will break :P
    1
  64. anusheadproductions How often do you think they fail?
    1
  65. in a sentence: It has enough electric motors to compensate. In two sentences: The combustion engine of the car has enough power and power band, combined with the electric motors it is enough. At slow speeds it compensates with a hydraulic clutch (Commonly known as a torque converter).
    1
  66. Well, if you are technical :P (It uses the electric motors for reverse, no ICE reverse)
    1
  67. Hellboy13994 Nope, in Europe we use HP (which is WHP), I know BHP is crank power, that is why it is not an issue, only in `murica!
    1
  68. adidasboy132 Still depends on the frontal area of the car.
    1
  69. Yes, but that was aimed at how it actually works and drives.
    1
  70. No problem :P
    1
  71. something1random23 Horsepower is a messurment of energy flow rate, torque is only force. There for torque isn`t relevant when talking about engines as you usually use a Transmission to alter the torque! The only thing relevant is the HP Curve.
    1
  72. something1random23 How is torque relevant when you accelerate a car?
    1
  73. something1random23 No, without horsepower you get no where....torque is irrelevant, the power band (The graph of HP) is much more relevant. Spikes or low low end power is an issue, lower overall torque isn`t Come back when you have taken your first physics class...torque is a marketing trick.
    1
  74. something1random23 But you do not move without Horsepower ;) Go troll somewere else! torque is only the force, you need speed to move things...I do not like to stay stationary! If torque is relevant why do F1 engines produce 150-250Nm torque and still go faster than any car on this planet? Because torque is not relevant when accelerating a vehicle...you use a Torque multiplier (the transmission) to creat sufficient wheel torque... Learn some physics man...it aint that hard.
    1
  75. something1random23 ....why speak of torque when you can speak of a actual unit of power? Haha, you know more about physics? Well, tell me Einstein, why does Truck engines Have 1000-2000 Nm torque? Is it A, so they can tow heavy loads, B Because Diesel or C Because it comes as a side effect of having optimized the engine for lower RPM for beter MPG.
    1
  76. something1random23 Wrong, right answear is C, they are optimized for low RPM as that increases their efficiensy. Thats all folks, this troll can go somewere else now :)
    1
  77. something1random23 Torque is still irrelevant, and you are still talking about yourself ;)
    1
  78. ***** No no no, heavy high torque engines are made to run at full power for several thousands of hours! That is the difference, you could run a car engine in a truck but it wouldn`t last as long.
    1
  79. Yea, but just add more pressure and shorter durations ;)
    1
  80. That is the problem, If I had a 6.0liter engine I would want it to have atleast 500HP, idealy 750HP, because that is what they are capable of! With 4 valves per cylinder and with a turbo respectivly. Then you add some Multiport injection and other goodies to make that engine have a smooth smooth smooth torque curve :D
    1
  81. F2H At a reasonable A/F ration, pump gas, and a "normal" torque curve? No...
    1
  82. krazytoneride Yea, but being 172 cm tall I shouldn`t say anything about that being tiny or not xD But I am rocking an agressive density :)
    1
  83. marksuave25 Yea, but isn`t Jason like 6 foot plus too? Wonder if he has any problem? I don`t remember him complaining.
    1
  84. marksuave25 And she hasn`t that light skin lol. He is just a troll, don`t let him get to ya :P
    1
  85. The Regera has no gearbox, it uses a torque converter and electric motors instead :)
    1
  86. ***** Google Torque converter. The engines locks at about 40-50km/h and then slowly starts to rev and tops out at 450km/h. So basicly from 0-50km/h it uses the torque converter and the electric motors, after that it the Torque converter locks and the engines starts to rev slowly. If you want more acceleration the Torque converter can unlock and the engine uses the converter as a gearbox.
    1
  87. wabi sabi It is a torque converter, not a clutch. But nothing special, the electric engines are though :P
    1
  88. wabi sabi So 700HP extra power is not special with ability to torque steer?
    1
  89. wabi sabi No, you cannot do that without utsing multiple engines...
    1
  90. Not as it seem as of now, the first car to reach 300 mph seems to be a hybrid car, for example, the Regera has 1500hp thanks to its electric motors, mounting a pair to the front wheels would give it the 300-400hp it needs to hit 300 mph, so that is my best bet. But as Koenigsegg doesn't go for top speed as of yet it doesn't seem likely in the near future. Besides rubber is not handling 300 mph very well yet. Fastest production turbo diesel is still under 200 mph...long ways to go for 300 mph!
    1
  91. Because developing that sort of motor and battery setups costs millions and more millions...and what do they get in return? A car with a 200 miles range that is bulky as hell. It will take like 5-10 years before some one with a lot of money does it. Lithium polymer batteries can put out around 20Kw/kg but ut takes up a lot of volume to do so!
    1
  92. Huh? Which carburated production car has ever gone even over 200mph? Yea...none!
    1
  93. With 5000HP that wouldn't be a problem would it?
    1
  94. Ehm no? A ICE engine has around 30% efficiency. An electric motor has 90% efficiency...that is a 7 time difference!
    1
  95. No...if you have an motor that is 90% efficient at 100kw 11kw of heat will be created :) If you have a 100KW engine that is 30% efficient at 100kw it will create 233Kw of heat. You can confirm this by drividing the total power by the mechanical power, 333Kw/100Kw=0,30=30% So actually the electric motor creates 95,3% less waste heat than a ICE engine. Or 21,18 times less :) Sorry for my brain fart :P
    1
  96. And what do they all got in common? Poor handling and shitty safety ;) Carburators belong in museums!
    1
  97. Still means power is what matters.
    1
  98. Nope, HP determines how fast you tow and gearing and vehichle mass determines how much you tow.
    1
  99.  @uNabL3  TQ matters as much as RPM...but all you need to know is how much HP you have. Maybe if you ha a engine with 1 ft/lbs at 525,200 rpm you would get into the limits of gearing, but still, with enough gearing you can move anything! How fast is up to how much HP you have...not just TQ...
    1
  100.  @jamesthehandsome8582  Huh? Your are very wrong.
    1
  101. Except there is enough of it Petrolium is a hundred times worse and also needs cobalt, nickel etc, for the refineries It is much less dangerous than a gasoline car who can burn down in a minute It is the future, we have not seen any slowdown in growth of production, investment or sales.
    1
  102. Source?
    1
  103.  @Soshstar999  Link?
    1
  104.  @Soshstar999  No, they open all intake valves and exhaust valves at a time, they don't skip valves...
    1
  105. Well, there are EVs with more range :P
    1
  106. Depends, if you properly tune a high revving engine the power band won't suffer! A lot of V6 engines with turbos get good torque as low as 1500 RPM!
    1
  107. 2-stroke? You mean pre war oil mistifyers?
    1
  108.  @eriklehnsherr5784  Because they are trying to cut costs. High RPM and low weight 4 strokes are expensive.
    1
  109. Yea, but put a few sacks of lead in the engine bay and swap the V8 for a little 4-banger with 500 HP and you can do the same :)
    1
  110. It is irrelevant yes, look at the power figure and you are all set.
    1
  111. Is roots, is trash, screw or centrifugal is best.
    1
  112. Try to put out 700 HP on the dyno for 30 seconds, bet your engine would blow up xD
    1
  113. No, they are even stronger ;)
    1
  114. Roots *spits*, those have less than 55% compressor efficiensy. Screws rob less power and heats the air less. This would probably make 900 HP with a screw.
    1
  115. It's a Roots style SC, so adds only about 10% or so 😂 No need to worry 😉
    1
  116. A nascar engine is 3 times larger
    1
  117. An airplane model engine is way too small, try to make it vig and it won't work...
    1
  118. Or just: Port vs Direct vs Carb.
    1
  119.  @jamesthehandsome8582  Carbs are harder to start and have bad fuel consumption...they are most often in the repair shop, not crusing ;)
    1
  120.  @Texassince1836  Haha dream on dude...go to somewhere where it is cold and you'll see 😂
    1
  121. HP determines top speed if you compare the same car.
    1
  122. more than 100%, 90 degrees is infinity % grade xD
    1
  123. No, gearing and clutches is what get's you going.
    1
  124. Most often if you start with faulty simple analogies you start refusing to ditch them later on and try to convinces yourself that they are true! Start with the physics and build on top of that! If you can't explain it with physics it's probably bullocks! Remember...physics too men to the moon, not half true analogies!
    1
  125. Why would you put the same gearing in two cars that have completely different torque curves?
    1
  126. Torque is irrelevant.
    1
  127. Nope, around 3-5 300km races is typical.
    1
  128. Yes, but this is about the theory, in practice most EVs will take care of it for you, just like the ECU of an ICE vehicle will take care of many things for you (Cold start settings, choke, ignition timing advance/retardation, fuel/air mixture etc.)
    1
  129. He also adresses it at 10:35
    1
  130. Do the same with a RWD sportscar and you will see sub 4 second 0-60 runs.
    1
  131. Because that's not what street hondas are about. They are normal peoples cars, not filthy rich cars.
    1
  132. Exactly!
    1
  133. Or just install a proper catch can...it's not that hard! If you are lazy you can install a single injector behind the throttle body to spray a little to clean them.
    1
  134. Nope, the lobes are identical, screws have female and male rotors.
    1
  135. If you did that, you might as well put it straight to the engine and gain all of it, but then you would need a 100 bar hydrogen rated compressor...those are not cheap my guy, not at those flow rates and duty cycle with that need for long operation.
    1
  136. Nothing complex here lol, just two electric motors with their acessories.
    1
  137.  @BlueDually4x4  Yea, but if ypu have no RPM you won't move at all...
    1
  138.  @Formulabruce  Never said they couldn't.
    1
  139.  @Formulabruce  The BMW produce max TQ at 1500 rpm...
    1
  140.  @kiyoponnn  I'm not murican Please tell me how you are moving things with just TQ...
    1
  141. Nope, 'muricans only buy 'murican engines with blowers and carburators...
    1
  142. Good luck getting 700 HP from a EVO with only 1.6 Bar boost
    1
  143. Because they don't want to or are too impatient :)
    1
  144. That won't help it. You need about 3500 celsius to cook carbon...
    1
  145. Nope, if built to spec it will last as long, there are better and worse injectors of every injection pressure! Besides, injectors have always failed before the engine, ask any semi-trucker.
    1
  146. No, they need lower valve lift, the valves are huge in this engine!
    1
  147. Petrolium is also mined, they need cobalt for refining it to gasoline, diesel etc. and there is no recycling of CO2. Lithium, cobalt and manganese is plentiful on earth, it just takes time for mines to get investers and open.
    1
  148. 7-8 my ass, the engine would not even run at that and would billow out smoke like a stove. More like 10.5-11.5
    1
  149. So a 10 ton steam engine is the best for drag racing? It makes 10,000 lb/ft at 10 HP. Stop, HP is all that matters, the rest a good gearbox will fix.
    1
  150. If the arm starts to move you are using the potential energy of the 100g weights to push the arm down, but as arm turns the weight will push less and less in the direction you want the arm to turn.
    1
  151. If you run out of gearing you have the wrong gearbox or diff ratio....
    1
  152. Hydraulic actuator
    1
  153. No, truck engines have high torque because they have to compensate for low RPM due to them wanting low piston speeds for reliability and fuel efficiensy. Ever wondered why semis have 12 or even 16 gears? So they can tow...gears is what matters when towing...not TQ
    1
  154. No, not straight water, but with ethanol or methanol it would clean it (Needs to be a none polar molecule to solve oils) But if you are lucky it will boil off the valve and remove it also with straight water :)
    1
  155. Diesels are in fact more peaky than most gas engines, gas engines run smooth from 1000 rpm to 6000 rpm, that is 6:1. A diesel runs smooth from 1200 to 3600 rpm, that is only 3:1.
    1
  156. Yes, but it is less inportant on 4V/Cyl engines as they have such large intake area. On 2V it is critical because they breathe through a tiny straw.
    1
  157. 2 ms
    1
  158. Yea, but did it do it in record time? No... If you want to pull something you want to weigh a lot and have a lot of power, torque and RPM is irrelevant! Mass and power is key.
    1
  159. As Serena Hansen said, they need to last longer and operate efficiently! Lower RPM is more efficient to a point.
    1
  160. Bert, no, it will move mass slower if it has less BHP and go up hills slower if it has less BHP to weight.
    1
  161. Bert, says the person with a cartoon avatar! Stop jumping to personal insults and keep to the subject! If you get butt hurt, apply water to the burnt area!
    1
  162. No, learn english rice boiii
    1
  163. I don't think it will mowe it, the blades won't cut it. Or did you wonder if it fits in the fuel tank?
    1
  164. Because they already cool it with direct injectors, you can't put even more fuel in!
    1
  165. No, the other way around...TQ is what you tell uneducated people, HP is what you feel
    1
  166. As they are less effective solvents there should be more carbon buildup on the intake valve if crank case venting is not filtered before led into the intake.
    1
  167. No one wants to fill their vehicles with two fuels...
    1
  168.  @PhoenixSolitary  Which is like 0.1% of the vehicle market
    1
  169. Batteries do not explode....they can catch fire if you get those made in china by bad factories....just like many many gasoline cars, but people do not talk about that
    1
  170. Now it will have 0.05% less airflow, the horror!!!
    1
  171. It is not a cheat, it is just tech.
    1
  172. No Porsche exhaust is 60 bucks....get real.
    1
  173.  @anticat900  It is one less turbo, two more motors, not that complex in my opinion
    1
  174. No, when towing gearing,mass and drive system is most important. For towing speed and acceleration HP is most important. TQ is just a number.
    1
  175. At 100 rpm and negative 20 PSI of boost with 100% diesel fuel!

  176. a V6 turbo engine makes peak torque at 1500 RPM to 6000 rpm! An the gearing issue is none existent!

  177. A simple 3-4 liter V6 will do the trick, just use an extra reduction gear :) Will weigh less than the large V8!

  178. It's a bit large to be honest, 2.5L would be enough.

  179. Except it's not intercooled and it's a shitty roots SC, cool it and screw/centrifug it!

  180. No, Boost is merely the pressure above ambient in the intake manifold. You need temperature too to calculate MAD (manifold air density)

  181. Torque is irrelevant
    1
  182. You also need RPM, without it and torque you don't move an inch! So HP is all that matters...

  183.  @alexstromberg7696  Mhmm, that's why both TQ and RPM are irrelevant, HP is what you want.
    1
  184.  @alexstromberg7696  You only need a little, in the end all that matters is HP

  185.  @alexstromberg7696  Both work actually. Diesels are used for work because they have high efficiensy.

  187. Horsepower, mass, air resistance, wheel resistance and starting distance determines how fast you hit the wall. The kinetic energy of the vehicle and the mass of the wall determines how far you take it with you.

  188. Nickel Cadmium batteries are extremly unstable compared to modern lithium ion batteries.

  189.  @julesviolin The only issue with fast charging is when you charge at high rates and get accross into 80%, you need to slow down as you might smash the lithium ions through the anode material, but ALL modern charging controllers are aware of that...other than that chemistry (what exact type of lithium ion blend they use) and how large the conductors are inside the battery (lowers internal resistance which heats the batteries). A well designed battery will last as many cycles charging in 60 minutes vs charging in 120 minutes, some even go as low as 20 minutes, the record holders are below 6 minutes at the moment, but they sacrifice a lot of things to get there including cycle life.

  190.  @julesviolin  As I said, they do not damage the batteries by fast charging them, they limit the charging rate above 80% as per the manufacturers recommendation... Sure, charging at home is the default for EVs, fast chargers should only be used when you are on a tight time schedule on a long trip. :)

  191. EVs are much cooler anyways, this is for boomers

  192. +10%, Roots sucks.

  193.  @m.morininvestor9920  I forgot they used a intercooler, so 20% if the stars aline 🤔

  194. Unlike gasoline cars who never catch fire 😂😂😂

  195.  @djuro14  Conventional bombs do not detonate like nuclear bombs...are you okay?
    1
  196.  @djuro14  No it isn't, nuclear bombs contain fissile material that is usually compressed into a super critical state which triggers a nuclear explosion, conventional bombs only use a chemical that decomposes very fast creating an explosion.

  197.  @djuro14  EVs catch fire when damaged severely, while gasoline cars are known to spontaneously catch fire.
    1
  198.  @djuro14  What is more relevant is how often they catch fire, which gasoline cars are about 10 times more likely to do.
    1
  199.  @djuro14  Because gasoline is a flamable liquid that produces a lot of flamable vapours.
    1
  200.  @djuro14  Most fires burn out of control before the fire 🚒 can reach you. Especially when there is gasoline involved. An EV fire can be put out, you just need the correct extinguishers and methods.
    1
  201.  @djuro14  Just that they are 10 times less likely to catch fire, and are getting safer every year. There are already LFP batteries that cannot catch fire, so problem solved if you are living in fear. I'd rather have just one EV burning in a parking garage than 10 gasoline cars thank you.
    1
  202.  @djuro14  There are not sprinklers in every parking garage or parking lot. And as EVs are 10 times less likely to catch fire to being with that would be like it happening once every 100 years instead of once every 10 years for gasoline cars.
    1
  203.  @djuro14  What about a gasoline car burning next to other gasoline cars?
    1
  204.  @djuro14  On a gasoline fire? Because that works so well...
    1
  205.  @djuro14  Nukes level whole cities, an EV fire just burn for a while, and they are very rare to start burning to begin with, and there are safe options if you are so scared about it.
    1
  206.  @djuro14  That is when the fire department arrives, which is usually when the car already have bruned most of the way down.
    1
  207.  @djuro14  Safer than already safe options, like having a helmet on when walking around the house is safer than to not wear one, doesn't mean it is unsafe to walk around in the house
    1
  208.  @djuro14  Luckily they are 90% less likely to happen.
    1
  209.  @djuro14  Just like when a gasoline car fire happens, just 90% less likely to happen.

  210. Nope, in any case you wanna move HP wins. Torque is just a number.

  211. Great for cars too, you just have to wait to afford one 😊

  212. Or, suck bang for those oil misters that smell funny.
