Report Reveals Reality Of Electric Vehicle Battery Fires: 'The Media Don't Treat EVs And ICEs With Equal Footing'

26 Dec 2023 | Abstracted from The Cool Down

"...survey from Morning Consult in early 2023, nearly half of respondents still unconvinced about an electric car purchase were put off by reports of EV fires.

"National Transportation Safety Board and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics [show] that 1,530 fires were reported for every 100,000 cars sold with an internal combustion engine. Meanwhile, for every 100,000 EVs sold, only 25 fires were reported."
