It is always interesting to see that an electric car is the first suspect!

if there is an EV within 10 miles it’ll be the first suspect in reporting these days :/

Electrek reported:

But NOS, the Dutch public broadcaster, cites a “Coast Guard spokesperson” as saying that presumably the fire was started by an EV

We called [the Coast Guard] and asked them. And they told us that, no, they have not made a statement to that effect, because they don’t know the cause of the fire yet, and that this seems to be speculation in the media

2,832 fossil cars and 25 EVs on board ...

by the way, it is not confirmed that the fire is because of EV
