    its timely for new battery chemistry and tech to take over from Lithium. imo its too unstable a chemical to be safe enough even though its remains safer than FF ICE vehicles. VW petrol campers were frequently seen burning at the side of the road in the day.... VW never made a recall to fix the glitch that resulted in so many fires.

    recently LG and other domestic batteries have been recalled for the same reason, yet the stats of fires in quality made batteries don't stack up to anything similar to the VW fires. there needs to be sense in this argument otherwise it degenerates to merely beating up on new tech that is designed to reduce GHG emissions and improve our road safety, comfort and vehicle efficiency.
