Dont worry during the winters in china, they will be making EV's again. Not to drive, but to keep warm...Oooops...."deserted"
Deserted Factories Show How China Electric Car Boom Went Too Far
We already know, Americans don't care for EV's....but now China!!
Really fucking stupid. How many Whippets have you driven? There were huge numbers of different auto manufacturers early on, most went out of business, or were purchased by a larger manufacturer.Oooops...."deserted"

Have you ever been in an electric car when it is in an accident? Special handling must be done, so emergency crews dont electrocute themselves.....ICE vehicles have a higher burn rate than do Tesla's.
"About 174,000 vehicle fires were reported in the United States in 2015, the most recent year for which statistics are available from the National Fire Protection Association. Virtually all of those fires involved gasoline powered cars. That works out to about one every three minutes.
Tesla claims that gasoline powered cars are about 11 times more likely to catch fire than a Tesla. It says the best comparison is fires per 1 billion miles driven. It says the 300,000 Teslas on the road have been driven a total of 7.5 billion miles, and about 40 fires have been reported. That works out to five fires for every billion miles traveled, compared to a rate of 55 fires per billion miles traveled in gasoline cars."
Are electric cars more likely to catch fire?
Recent fiery crashes involving Tesla are raising concerns about the safety of electric cars. But carrying a tank of gasoline poses it own risks.money.cnn.com

I guess you havent. The rescue team, must make sure that the EV has discharged it voltage or they end up getting electrocuted. If time is short as you are bleeding out, if they have to wait long, you are dead.ACTIVATED AIRBAGS IN ELECTRIC VEHICLES
If, in the event of an accident, the airbags of an electric or hybrid vehicle are activated, there is no risk of electrocution from the bodywork. This is because the power supply from the high-voltage battery is automatically switched off when the airbags are activated. In exceptional cases the airbags may not activate in a bad crash – for instance, if a vehicle is hit from behind. As long as the safety cage remains intact, there is no risk of electrocution from the bodywork.
Electric vehicles: More danger to rescuers?
Electric vehicles are now a common sight on every type of road and their number, including hybrids, is steadily increasing. Statistically, this means that there is a greater chance that, when an accident occurs, it will involve an electric vehicle. What does this mean for rescuers? Just like...
Tesla's safety ratings are almost all 5 star;

Yeah, 5 star until they catch fire...Are those zero star cars then?Tesla's safety ratings are almost all 5 star;
Tesla’s Model Y is the company’s latest five-star safety rated car
Joining the Model 3, Model S, and Model X.
Tesla claims? Now Tesla is a source on his competition? In my life time I never had a fire in my car nor has any car manufacture said I should park my car 50 ft away from anything I dont want to burn. Also, I never had a fire, let alone a fire that the fire department can not put out.
But is that not the point of an accident, that things are broke and do not stay intact? Moron!ACTIVATED AIRBAGS IN ELECTRIC VEHICLES

Dumb asses. A gas fire is far more catastrophic and quick, than a battery fire.
Let's see, 89,876 Tesla 3's, 79,072 Tesla y's, 22,255 Tesla X's, and 13,071 Tesla S's, for a total of 204, 274. And 1,500,000+ pre-orders for the Cyber truck. And most model production sold out well into 2022. Hmmmmm.............. Looks like they have sold just about every vehicle that they produced. And they will probably double those sales in 2021. By 2025, advances in batteries will bring the prices of EV's in direct competition with ICE's on prices, and the EV's will be far better products with much lower fuel and maintenance costs.In case anybody missed it..............

This is a thread about shitty chinese electric cars, not gas fires?
