Was this trans-Pacific car carrier that just sank "filled" with EVs?

Based on the multiple sources available, it seems that the headline stating the cargo ship was 'filled' with EVs might be somewhat misleading. While there were indeed EVs onboard - around 800 of them - they only accounted for a fraction of the total cargo. The ship was carrying around 3,000 vehicles in total, and the remaining 2,200 vehicles were not EVs.

Additionally, the exact cause of the fire is not entirely clear. While smoke was first spotted on the deck carrying the EVs, the shipping company, Zodiac Maritime, has not commented on which automaker's vehicles were on board or whether the EVs were the source of the fire.

In summary, the headline might be a bit of an exaggeration, as the ship was not entirely filled with EVs. It's crucial to consider all the information available and take headlines with a grain of salt.
