It's Friday, so .. more #TeslaFireIssues updates in this ongoing Tesla 'safety' thread
Example no. 346: a controlled test, at low speed

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 .. ⚱️

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

In all OTHER tests, and IRL .. well
(Ford Pinto was taken out of production, after 3.2 million and 27 victims. Tesla fire victims?)

So strange
Lethal accidents happen up to 100 times less in expensive young cars. Compared to old cheap cars

Tesla on fire 439
Tesla: So "your Tesla hit a trailer AND the barrier, and then it started to smoke. You had to call firefighters"
Yeah. But.. you could've been 'burned alive in my Tesla no. 61' so it's not that bad actually
