  1. The picture of the car on fire, looks like it's a Landrober Discovery Sport (Diesel PHEV) ... passenger side electrical fire. If it is a Disco, the batteries are in the boot, but the interior fuse box is in the usual location (passenger footwell, near the glovebox). Image could have been taken by the driver after evacuating the vehicle. The moment an EV battery lights up, that's a lot of heat... could build up to collapse concrete... tyres pop, glass shatters... fanned by the wind (the fire would draw wind towards it). Last time I was at an airport car park, there's lots of EVs parked next to each other, even if it wasn't the first vehicle, if it spreads to them, it's a damn hard job for the Fire Service. No need for the rumour mill to suggest the initial investigation is "wrong"
