I haven't seen any one claim that EV catch fire more often than ICE cars but when they do it's generally not a small localized fire. EV's tend to burn to the ground and are generally hard to extinguish. Maybe if the powers that be were not forcing this technology on us we might not be using EV short comings to point out the folly of the mandates?
By the way do you think the EV fire issue will get worse or better when there are more EV's on the road and the average age of the EV's is older and closer to the expensive battery replacement? Or when the market is filled with cheap Chinese EV's?
