On Fridays I usually spend some time on one of my four ongoing Tesla threads. (Well, I try to. But so many Teslas on fire, and so little time .. )

#TeslaFireIssues example 411:

countynews.tv/irvine-fire-er…
"Tesla vehicle fires are exceptionally rare events, and in some cases, there have been zero Tesla vehicle fires in a quarter"

(Tesla 2019 'safety report' - which keeps 'forgetting' to say how many Teslas/yr burn to the ground. Or which quarter that was)

412:

"According to the Florida Highway Patrol, the Tesla sedan slammed into the minivan, flipping over and bursting into flames"

(4 died, 2 burned to death in upside down Tesla)

So
Ford Pinto: 27 burned to death inside
Tesla: 54 burned to death inside

And counting.

Reminder why we're doing this thread. Comparing Tesla fire victims to the Ford Pinto. Ended after 3.2 million & 27 fire victims in ten years

Tesla after 3 million in 10 years: "safest cars in the world" (Elon Musk)

(PS: and zero financial interest here)

Tesla fire victim no. 42, in Denmark

Ford Pinto: 27
Tesla: 42

(And counting)

It's Friday, so .. more #TeslaFireIssues updates in this ongoing Tesla 'safety' thread

Example no. 346: a controlled test, at low speed

Remember what I said about a Tesla scraping the sides or bottom. And your Tesla is .. (well, you know, 20x or 30x more often than other EV's)
Let me show you the pictures

Yup: a hardly dented battery floor, hardly damaged on impact. And still within seconds: kaboom

Now imagine those $1000 Tesla door locks (b)locked, as usual, even after a moderate crash

So, unless you kick the glass or have a fire truck ready .. ⚱️ ImageImageImage
Just to compare: here's the latest Tesla Y crashing into another EV

1/ Notice the Tesla door blocked?

2/ Notice the Tesla battery crumpled like a pretzel? Ready to explode, while the other EV in same test has ZERO door problems, ZERO battery deformation

Reminder: please don't ask Dear Leader Elon why Teslas explode and burn dozens of times more frequent than the ~half a million Nissan Leafs on the road since 2009.

Per EV, per year, per mile, whatever. Dozens of time more frequent on fire / explosions ..

Eigenlijk weinig tijd vandaag. Maar deze moet even, want .. hij is namelijk gewist.

Ja, mag niet hè, van de ScienTeslagy sekte. Tweeten dat je Tesla zomaar in de fik vloog. Da's blasfemie, binnen de sekte.

'Defrost Car mode' ;))

#TeslaFireIssues example 324:

Je rijdt in je 'veilige' Tesla door een trutstraatje, neemt de bocht te ruim en ramt een paaltje

Ik zal niet alle details melden, maar het wordt er eentje voor mijn komende vierde draadje: 'Levend verbrand in je Tesla' ..


Image
"The victim, who has not been identified, died in the crash while police tried to get him out of the vehicle .."

Vreemd, dat alleen 'tig brandende Tesla bestuurders zo vaak opgesloten zitten. Dankzij die deuren met de beruchte elektrische Tesla sloten.

Zo flauw, een rechtszaak beginnen, alleen omdat de deursloten niet open gingen

Bij je nieuwste Tesla S. Net 9 maanden uitgesteld, omdat euhh ..

Nou omdat er 'thermische anomaliteiten' waren met de accu's (Ja, het staat zo slecht als je "explosies" zegt)

"Tesla vehicle fires are exceptionally rare events, and in some cases, there have been zero Tesla vehicle fires in a quarter"

(Tesla Q2 2019 vehicle 'safety' report)

So, in which quarter?

Tesla: 'sorry, no more time for questions'

#TeslaFireIssues 284

Tesla: "Tesla vehicle fires are exceptionally rare events, and in some cases, there have been zero Tesla vehicle fires in a quarter"

So, Elon ..

Why do Teslas explode and burn at least ~30 times (or more) often than a Nissan Leaf?

So, Elon.

Why DO Teslas explode at least 30 times more often than a Nissan Leaf.

(First EV model on the market with 450,000 on the road. Since 2009)

Yet 'miraculously' they burn/explode at least 30 times less, per mile, per car, per year, whatever.

FYI, METI's final auto Li-ion batt. production/sales/inventory data for July should come out later tonight (US time).

Based on prelim. METI data & MoF export data, I expect the prod/sales #s to be very high, ~last yr's level.

But why?

$TSLA $TSLAQ #Tesla #CYAZ #テスラ #モデル3
Is Tesla making more S/X this Q than Q1/Q2?

If not, why would Tesla buy so many 18650 cells?

Any reasonable (or unreasonable) explanation?

I got a tin-foil hat theory.

More on this in ~12 hrs.

$TSLA $TSLAQ #Tesla #CYAZ #テスラ #モデル3
Ooops. Make is 36 hrs. Data release is Friday, not Thursday. Sorry!🙇‍♂️
