$1.6 million in electric cars burn after Hurricane Sandy
Nov. 1, 2012
Quote:
Sixteen Fisker Karma electric vehicles caught fire and burned to the ground after being submerged by saltwater from Hurricane Sandy's storm surge.
The $100,000 cars were parked in Port Newark, N.J., prior to the storm's arrival, according to Jalopnik. The vehicles were submerged when Hurricane Sandy's storm surge beached the port, flooding the luxury electric vehicles and other cars parked in the port.

Almost 10 years ago. This is nothing new and it definitely hasn't stopped the promotion and production of EVs. EVs have become a political issue. To think any less is to ignore what is happening all over the world - GO GREEN.
