It could be hard to get a car up into the tank... connecting a winch might not be possible due to the heat, but I wonder how they get around that to tow it?
Also, needing to plan for larger vehicles like a pickup truck would mean > 4,000 lbs of water to submerge one, base an approximate dimensions of such trucks & the corresponding volume of water.
Than again with batteries generally in the bottom of the car, maybe you'd only need to submerge a few feet?
I can definitely see the need for new emergency response equipment in the EV future.

Seems like something similar in design to this would do the trick, maybe with sufficiently thick steel plating on the side: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaYN6yC4bnI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaYN6yC4bnI
