I usually hate defending e-vehicles but you'd need to be going pretty fast to basically spear the battery box on one of these and puncture a cell to cause thermal runaway. Most motorcycle accidents tend to rip the fork off and send the bike and rider flying, but don't tear apart the frame and engine area aside from farings and junk.
Teslas weigh 100x more and no matter how much I hate to defend Tesla, it takes a big hit for them to light on fire.
Can't wait to get maimed when one of these rockets into the side of the bus I'm on at 200 km/h because the driver thought it was self driving
No, but it would be involved in crashes anyways and if the batteries are lithium then every mild crash is gonna be really dangerous.
Electric motorcycles w/ l-ion batteries are pretty common in parts of SEA.
So teslas are explosives because they are particularly bad built?
That, but also they have way more batteries than a typical scooter or even motorcycle and the batterie casing is a structural part of the frame
