I know that many people will quote statistics regarding the number of gas car fires versus ev fires. The issue imho is that battery fires are far more difficult to extinguish than traditional ice car fires.
Even if all EV batteries were perfectly safe, parking a bunch of these cars on an underground parking it's a mayor risk. Fires can start for other reasons...
@@nyakwarObat lithium batteries fire is not regular fire. It a chemical reaction and pour water is not wise. Use carbon dioxide or powder to suppress fire. It a chemical fire. Use like carbide, cannot use water. First responders must be trained for this new technology
Agree. Phobia is not the term.

EV cars are very very dangerous. In Korea, we have lots of basement paking lot(car park) , so basically it's completely different from the Europe or the U.S. People are very afraid of EV cars nowadays.
It's a very serious risk not only to human life but also to buildings. This risk will increase as batteries get older and as more and more electric vehicles get parked side by side.
We need proper protocols and regulations before subsidising EVs and rolling them out en masse. We can only expect more of these incidents going forward 😢

That analysis is not correct. While the number of incidents increased by 200%, it has to take into account the increase in the number of EV vehicles on the road. If the number of EV vehicles increased by say 200%, then you see that the number of incidents per 100 vehicles on the road has not increased. Of course, that increase in the number of incidents is more alarming because of its greater visibility and needs to be remedied.

But why only in Korea? EVs are generally less likely catch firss than ICE vehicles. I wonder if there is a study that can really address that, otherwise people make assumptions that EVs catch fires all the time.
EVs are relativley new and generally less likely catch firss than ICE vehicles. But fire consecuences are far more dangerous as battery fires bring it's own oxigen to the party and are very difficult to suppress. Also gases from batteriesfires are much more toxic.
Yes and they are "safe and effective". As we have been told "trust the science"! Seems to me we were told these things before and where did that get us! No evs for me thanks!
Certainly terrifying. Some people still argue that the EV fires are far more less than ICE fires... . But I don't think I have ever heard of such incident like this... A single fire caused by ICE car immediately spread into 140 cars in the whole parking lot. Ah.. Im sorry. We Japan had one, in which Volks Wagen (ICE) car caught fire and spread into more than 150 cars. hmmm but still we hear a lot of EV fire news than ICE cars. And even EV Bikes fires are extremely dangerous in terms of the magnitude and quickness of the fires.

The Quantum Scape battery under finalization for production is safe at temperatures within the battery at 300 deg C and does not propagate a fire within a cell to other cells.

It makes no sense to me, evs are perfectly safe, nothing wrong with them at all, they don't catch fire at all not one has ever caught fire. So let's get this right the cars are very safe, the battery on the other hand has problems, just like petrol used to catch fire these batteries are catching fire, so the question is why are they not investigating the problem instead of the car. Look at what causes the battery to burst into flames, forget about the vehicle, this used to happen to laptops and m9bile phones until they looked at the problem, the phone was fine the laptop was d8ne but the battery needed to be looked, now hardly any of these devises catch fire, because figured out why they were catching fire.

@@barackblows1942so do Tesla in USA catch on fire a lot. China has more EV fire is because China has more EVs overall.
Japanese EV are the best, Nissan Leaf etc.....
Funny how the pic kind of looks like a Tesla so you can subconsciously trigger people to hate Elon more.
That's just your over imagination playing tricks on you. Pipe it down ffs 🙄

EVs are done!!! No one wants it….i don’t want EV…
Just like Samsung's battery explosion, the quality of batteries produced in South Korea is far inferior to that in China.
Mercedes Benz itself revealed that the car that caught fire was equipped with Chinese battery. What are you smoking?
@@d_techterminal The chairman of Farasis Energy is Canadian. Factories set up in China are owned by China? There are many foreign companies in China. The batteries of Ningde Times and BYD are Chinese brands.

@@tiaoyi-bx5yi byd also burnt to ashes. Watch the news. You said batteries produced in south Korea are far inferior but reality is quite different
@@d_techterminal On June 24, the Aricell battery factory in South Korea was burned down. Hyundai KONA electric vehicles equipped with LG batteries have been involved in 15 fire accidents, all of which occurred when the batteries caught fire while charging. Hyundai Motor Co. recently announced a recall plan for its KONA electric vehicles, recalling all KONA electric vehicles sold in South Korea due to a potential battery fire hazard. China produces the most electric cars in the world. The accident rate of Korean batteries is far greater than that of Ningde era and BYD.
Propaganda.....
Cooked up in their spirits and snorting veranda 🙄
It makes no sense to me, evs are perfectly safe, nothing wrong with them at all, they don't catch fire at all not one has ever caught fire.
So let's get this right the cars are very safe, the battery on the other hand has problems, just like petrol used to catch fire these batteries are catching fire, so the question is why are they not investigating the problem instead of the car.
Look at what causes the battery to burst into flames, forget about the vehicle, this used to happen to laptops and m9bile phones until they looked at the problem, the phone was fine the laptop was d8ne but the battery needed to be looked, now hardly any of these devises catch fire, because figured out why they were catching fire.
as soon as i saw this video i thought it would be Chinese batteries
Yes because you are an absolute eddiote
you were right. chynese batteries are notorious for spontaneous fires.
Please don't slander Chinese companies? The battery that caught fire was made in China by an American company! It used outdated technology! No one in China knows about this company!
