    I think Teslas shouldn’t speak for all EVs.

    the company has demonstrated a very high tolerance for risk. In execution, but also they don’t seem to care about reputational risk. Other manufacturers with a larger business at stake, I would expect to handle recalls, safety in a different manner (one of the reasons they are lagging in the EV space)

    So… EVs have significantly less fires than combustion engines

    But EVs fires are more severe

    Tesla is a mess.

    EV chemistry is getting better and safer over time.

    Combustion engines are largely at their limit.
