I believe Volvo has decided that every car it makes will have an electric motor starting in 2019. After seeing reports of cars with lithium batteries going pyrotechnic, I think I'll burn some kind of liquid fuel a little longer.
How to fight a burning Tesla
On Nov. 3, a Tesla S with two people onboard raced at high speeds through Indianapolis before smashing into a tree. The violent impact killed the occupants, spread so much debris that responders initially thought it was a car vs. motorcycle crash and set off an incredibly hot fire.
Even days later as the remains of the vehicle sat in an impound yard, it needed a 150-foot buffer zone to keep from igniting other vehicles.
This was no garden variety car fire.
