@7newsaustralia: An electric vehicle has burst into flames at an intersection in Irvine, California. Orange County Fire Authority said such fires are "extremely challenging due to the intense heat and risk of thermal runaway in lithium-ion batteries." #ev #electricvehicle #car #carfire #california

Gas vehicles are statistically more likely to catch on fire, and hybrids are the worst.

BYD Blade batteries and solid state batteries correct this risk.
