"More Than A Dozen Fisker Karma Hybrids Caught Fire And Exploded In New Jersey Port After Sandy"
If those photos don't count as an explosion to you, I don't know what does.
- mikeash 12y agoLooks like fires to me, not explosions. I honestly do not see what you think is so obviously an "explosion" in those pictures.
- scott_karana 12y agoWhat could possibly start aflame in an electric car, but the batteries? (I'm aware that other parts would be flammable.)
- mikeash 12y agoIt seems clear that the batteries caught fire. The question is whether they exploded.
- emn13 12y agoThough there's certainly a difference, I'm not sure it's all that important here. A fire followed by a mild explosion isn't necessarily that much more dangerous or harmful than a fast fire. You don't really want either.
- lttlrck 12y agoAny part of the electrical system could catch fire due to a fault. Edit: not any part, but electrical systems do start fires.
