I haven't found any data as to how many EV cars got torched . . .
But apparently it IS happening.

Electric cars causing fires after Hurricane Helene flooding

http://www.abcactionnews.com/news/local-news/electric-cars-causing-fires-after-hurricane-helene-flooding

Electric cars have been causing fires after being submerged in salt water since Hurricane Helene brought devastating flooding to the state.

St. Petersburg Fire Rescue urges residents with electric vehicles to refrain from charging or attempting to drive them if they were exposed to salt water.

And the danger isn't over just because the storm has passed. Officials warn that the fires can happen days or even weeks later. This is even true for golf carts.

SPFR wrote on Facebook, "Saltwater flooding can cause hidden damage to your electric vehicle's battery, even if it appears normal. This corrosion can lead to dangerous fires days or even weeks later."

I am amazed that there are not hundred, neh, thousands, of reports of this happening in the last few days.

Suppression of news by the GOV ??? or by the media leftists and corporation pressure ???

Think about how many times in your life you have driven through water that is more than a few inches deep, or a foot or more deep ?

Would you OWN a car that can very possibly catch on fire, a fire that you can not possibly extinguish yourself ?

How many times has this happened with latest MASSIVE flooding from Helene ?
