Bolts are ~6 times less likely to catch fire than an ICE.
A subset of Chevy Bolts, IF they have a Korean battery, IF the fire happened while parked, IF only compared to cares 2 years old or newer, then they a higher rate of fire than cars with ICE. That's relevant, but it is misleading to give the numbers without the context.
- kamranjon 5y agoI provided the link as context. Also for what it's worth chevy just announced a recall for all bolts 2017-2022 (which is every model year they've released) and even the EUV models from 2022 - so the problem appears to be more widespread than initially thought. https://my.chevrolet.com/how-to-support/safety/boltevrecall https://my.chevrolet.com/how-to-support/safety/boltevrecall
