Looks like the EV hit-squads…
Looks like the EV hit-squads are back again after a short respite. So easy for seasoned professionals - even in broad daylight - to quickly slap a tiny remote-control magnetic-adhesive IED - Incendiary-Explosive Device - onto the vehicle's floorplate which is just below the battery compartment...then choose your moment to press the red-button - "considerately" choosing a time and parking location where no children, passengers or drivers are onboard. The tiny IED needs only to blow a 2-3 inch hole into a single battery to ignite another full-blown headline-grabbing blaze.
Mission Accomplished again: yet more anti-EV headlines spread like wild-fires around the planet and cyberspace. All designed to constantly undermine consumer and investor confidence in EVs and all-things green and non fossil-fuelled while providing our largely gasoline and combustion-loving insurance industry with the perfect pretext/excuse to keep hiking up the cost of EV insurance - which in turn deters even more consumers from switching to EVs. Job done.
But sssh! Don't tell anyone the obvious but taboo truth..
