As regards fire risk at the moment it’s a concern but just about every incident like that has happened outside of Europe Australia is a tricky one what are their regulations like and on top of that these things need cooling because they’re in an outrageously hot environment most of the time very different from here.
Also we now have Sodium batteries on the market they use the same factories and are evolving fast the first car using them is already on sale. These batteries cannot catch fire.
CATL are now producing solid state batteries they haven’t gone mass production yet but they’re close they have a capacity of 700wh per kg which is double the best standard battery right now. As they ate solid they cannot go into runaway and catch fire
I don’t think it’ll be long now before these 2 technologies supplanted regular lithium ion cells and all the danger drawbacks should go away and indeed range anxiety too and charging tines as they also charge at 500kw odd too
