Authorities in Florida have warned that electric cars flooded with salt water from Hurricane Helene have the potential to explode.

The warning comes as saltwater has flooded many streets in Florida after Hurricane Helene caused significant flooding throughout the state. In a social media post, Pinellas County officials warned, “Electric Vehicles that have been flooded in saltwater can catch fire.” The warning continued, “If you evacuated and left an electric vehicle or golf cart in your garage or under a building and you are not able to get to it or move it, we want you to let us know.”

We don't have an automotive sub forum...?

I seem to recall some similar reports about EVs compromised by salt water after a different hurricane that hit FL (Ian?).

PS: Speaking of EVs I just read a review about a new 3-rotor Lucid that delivers a 1.9 second 0-60 time. That's quick... Only $250k
