Luton wasn't an EV

@amcluesent You can't out links on YouTube. Just do some basic research.

@DrAl60103 You CAN put them out, quite easily. You just need a fire blanket, but just as no one cares about ICE vehicle fires because they are so rare, we shouldn't worry to this degree about EV fires

@DrAl60103 Do you worry about your ICE car catching fire? No. So why worry about EV?

When is this myth going to stop? EV's statistically do not go on fire any more than any other type of car.

@amcluesent They're easy to find, just go and Google it. Didn't you know you can't post links in YouTube without them removing them? Hybrids are by far and away the most likely to catch fire.

@bobstirling6885 Swedish Civil Contingency Agency research has shown that fires in an EV are 19 times less likely. Bedford Fire Service has 1900 vehicle fires in 2019, only 54 were EV.

@bobstirling6885 No it does not mean that. If EVs were statistically much worse for fires as is claimed then the % of EVs catching fire would be far greater than the % of normal cars catching fires.

@chappy2121 Backtracking now? They can be successfully stopped from burning with fire blankets. Just face facts that fires aren't a significant worry for EV.

@timsbird1971 The UK grid is absolutely NOT half renewable. I'm an EV driver, but that is crap, and even if it were true for our CURRENT demand, that wouldn't be the case with a greater uptake of EV.

@adamdavies163 No one is saying they don't or haven't caught fire, but that statistically they are no more likely than any other car.

@adamdavies163 Exactly so why are fires in EVs given disproportionate coverage? 570,000 Kia ICE cars were recalled over fire risk, yet this sort of recall is never mentioned.

@adamdavies163 Only if you dont deal with them properly or use an inappropriate method. It's so rare it's not worth worrying about.
