“Environmentally-Friendly” Hybrid Car Catches Fire, Causes €500,000 Property Damage

Hybrid vehicles prone to catch fire…difficult to extinguish

It’s safe to say most people are compelled to buy an hybrid or electric car because they wish to reduce their impact on the environment and climate.

Unfortunately, many don’t seem to be aware of an electric car’s poor lifetime carbon budget and wind up spending a lot money for doing very little or nothing good for the environment.

Another problem is the higher tendency for hybrid cars to catch fire due to a technical fault. I saw firsthand during the recent New Year’s celebration as one hybrid car just 100 meters air distance from our home caught fire shortly after midnight (images here) and ended up burning the adjacent home.
