Electric Vehicle EV Side By Side Off Road Vehicle Has A Meltdown 2022 SEMA Show Las Vegas

We train on EVs with the fire dept. They offer new and exciting things to consider as a first responder, like high voltage lines and fires that are incredibly different to cool due to thermal runaway.

I believe EVs are 10X less likely to start on fire than conventional vehicles, but when they do, they can take over ten thousand gallons of water to cool the batteries sufficiently to prevent a reignition that could happen hours or even days later..
