..and how severe are the fires?
Varies, really. Most just smoke a bit for a while before they get going. A lot of the tales of "explosions" are actually just the cells off-gassing, which happens much later in the process. Several hundred degrees hotter than a diesel fire, though. With a diesel fire, you just undo your top collar button, loosen your tie, and maybe wind the window down a bit. With an EV fire, it's best to get out though.
So you admit, that EV fires are viscous, really nasty, and very dangerous ones - far, far worse than any diesel fire?

Well, if it's in the Birmingham Mail, it must be true, and professionally and accurately reported.I am not the only one who believes that, though, the government too!
