I have a friend who was a fireman and he said he put out lots of car fires. I asked if he ever saw one explode and he said "nope'. It was routine easy to put out and not very dangerous to deal with. ICEs burn at 4 times the rate of EVs.
I could post Gasoline fire videos here all day, by the thousands, BUT I THINK YOU GET MY MESSAGE!

This sort of thing has happened many times. Fire experts still dont seem to be able to come up with a good way to put out EV fires. Not just that, I think I know that they burn very hot and put out lots of toxic fumes....exactly of the sort that might cause cancer.
This EV thing has not been thought through.
I choose my own words like the Americans of olden times........before this dystopia arrived.
DARK AGES SUCK!
Well naturally there are more Internally Combustion Engine driven automobiles than EV's in the USA currently.
It'll be that way for years on years, as not many people can even think of buying a new car in this high inflationary period of high interest rates, and while Detroit only started ramping up their engineering to produce them just a few years back.
But they are trending, as their sales are doubling and tripling every year now moving forward.
It's a progression sort of thang!
EV's were invented even before ICE vehicles. But back before the turn of the century before last, batteries were basically huge tanks full of water, and the vehicles they were in were impractical and dangerously top-heavy having to haul around all that weight and water sloshing around in them. EV's of that era were self-defeating and people like Henry Ford had another idea that matched the times.

Are people rooting for electric cars to fail?
Are we in the 21st century that enamored with late 19th century technology like the internal combustion engine?
OK, I love the sound of a well tuned gasoline engine as much as anybody, but if the time has come to move on,
I wouldn't root against the successor.

EVs are a technological dead end. The future is green hydrogen and ammonia.

Assuming we have a future of any appreciable length.
I don't know and only marginally care, but I do know this.
I'm not an environmental scientist, but...people who deny man-made climate change are usually the same same people with opinions that I KNOW are ridiculous.
