Lithium Price Plunge - No One Buying EVs

Should we mention that ev catch on fire when under water. I wonder how many uv exploded with the current flooding, all of them

I think they don't catch fire if the battery case is not compromised. i.e as a result of a Collision.

Lithium-ion batteries in cars can be dangerous if damaged or improperly used, and can cause fires, explosions, and other hazards:

• Thermal runaway: When a lithium-ion battery is damaged, it can overheat and enter a self-heating state called thermal runaway. This can cause the battery to ignite and burn.

The left news does not cover ev cars exploding when under water. Sometimes it does get out in the news

Also, it is very hard to put out a battery fire on the road, takes a lot of water and time.

Past week, there were two Teslas that crashed and had a fire.
One was driving real fast and slam into an apartment building.
The other crashed into a pole.
What's up?
