I've heard people say recently that electric vehicles catch fire at the same rate as gas vehicles. Proof that they're basically safe enough. Except that has vehicles catch fire after an accident, or after 200k miles when someone let's an oil leak go on for way too long. Electric vehicles are catching fire while basically new, and while being used in standard ways like being parked and charging in your garage. It's not common at all for newish gas cars to catch fire while parked.
