  1. New footage showing the front of the car revealed the numberplate. It’s a plain diesel 2014 Range Rover sport with the 3 litre TDV6 engine.

  2. Also there was a recall for that model for brake lines incorrectly routed that allows for the brake lines to rub, causing a hole near the exhaust which can lead to fire or break failure.

  3. The extinguisher was unlikely to work. Also we do have the numberplate. It was a plain diesel 2014 Range Rover sport

  4. Which time? When the fire initially started and every media outlet claimed it was an EV? Or after when the fire service, CCTV and eye witness footage all confirmed it was diesel? Just clarifying.

  5. Historically ICE cars have had no problems causing this level of damage. Why do you think this is special?

  6. EV’s are significantly less likely to “go up like a torch” compared to diesel cars. Diesel cars do burn. And often. Hence all of the Land Rover recalls. But diesel is by far not the only flammable thing on a car. Keep trying kiddo.

  7. Statistically? Less than 20. But history shows us that this fire is not out of the ordinary for ICE vehicles.
