If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

One of those just killed it's occupants in a fire after the doors wouldn't open after a crash.
Avoid the asshole companies shitty product.
I take it they didn't know this feature existed or the doors were physically damaged in such a way that they were impossible to open.
