The Push to Transition to Electric Vehicles Brings a Major Concern to the Forefront

When Hurricane Idalia made its way through Florida last year, firefighters braced themselves to deal with a challenge entirely different from the issues they typically face with storm clean-up. Electric vehicles whose batteries become damaged from saltwater during a storm surge catch on fire—a phenomenon that can occur days or even weeks after the initial damage. Nearly two dozen EVs ignited after Hurricane Ian, so officials in the state did their best to warn residents to move them to higher grounds. After all, it’s not just a threat to the vehicle. A home that survived Ian ended up burning to the ground later from an EV parked in the garage that caught on fire, which affected the neighbor’s house, too.

Anybody want to start making a list of EV Problems?

1.) If it gets too cold they don't work and might not take a charge.

2.) If a hurricane douses it with salt water it might catch on fire.

Any more?
