Given that there have to be folks in the KGB pragmatic enough to realize what’s he’s doing to Russia, I keep wondering why he hasn’t been poked with an umbrella or drank some nerve agent…

But what fraction of the 300,000 vehicles were EVs… if only 3000 of the destroyed vehicles were EVs, that 6 becomes a lot more significant, no? And also that number includes only the ones that caught fire immediately. The ones that seemed fine may still “bolt” months later if there is undetected corrosion. I saw that there was a recall recently when some company found their battery pack hadn’t been properly sealed and could get wet from rain.
