Michael Wilson+Follow3,000 Cars Lost at Sea—What Happened?!A ship loaded with about 3,000 brand-new cars (including EVs and hybrids!) just sank in the North Pacific after a fire broke out onboard. The crew had to abandon ship weeks ago, and now the whole thing is sitting 16,000 feet underwater off Alaska. No pollution reported yet, but imagine all those cars at the bottom of the ocean! Salvage crews are on the scene just in case. Wild, right? #ShippingDrama #CarNews #OceanMystery #Cars212Share
walkerjason+Follow3,000 Cars Left Floating—Here’s WhyA ship packed with 3,000 cars (including 800 EVs!) was just abandoned in the Pacific after a massive fire broke out. The crew had to ditch the Morning Midas and were rescued, but the real drama? Experts think the EVs’ lithium-ion batteries might be to blame—these fires are wild and super hard to put out. This isn’t the first time, either: remember the Felicity Ace disaster? EV battery fires are becoming a big problem for cargo ships. Wild, right? #CarNews #EVs #ShippingDrama #Cars6512Share
Alexander Black+Follow3,000 Cars Ablaze on the High Seas?!A ship packed with 3,000 cars—800 of them EVs—caught fire in the middle of the Pacific, forcing the crew to abandon ship! Lithium-ion batteries made the blaze nearly impossible to fight, and the Coast Guard had to swoop in for a dramatic rescue. This isn’t the first time EVs have turned a cargo ship into a floating inferno, either. Are we ready for more electric cars if we can’t even put out the fires? Wild stuff! #EVfire #ShippingDrama #LithiumIon #Cars13086Share
