Updated with video from reporters on-site at the bottom of the post! Late Sunday night, four Tesla Cybertrucks caught fire in a Seattle holding lot near 2nd Ave S & S Spokane St, just five minutes from the local Tesla dealership. Initially, reports indicated two burning Cybertrucks, but as the fire spread, the number grew to 4 Cybertrucks. Investigators have offered no details as to whether this was arson or another case of a Tesla Cybertruck bursting into flames spontaneously. See video from the scene in the full article.

    Definitely for sure a spontaneous battery fire. Couldn’t imagine why anyone would want to commit arson on some low-poly neofash shitboxes. No sir.

      But wait…what if…and hear me out here…what if they caught fire as a result of people rebelling against a facist takeover of our government?

      What if…

        Far more likely that they set on fire because they are poorly designed an Musky boy is dismantling any and all safety regulations for his death traps.

          Man I hate Tesla more than most but it is far far less likely to just have spontaneous battery fires, especially on an older brand like Tesla. I know we all love to hate on them (cyber truck in particular), but seriously spontaneous battery fires are insanely uncommon.

            Spontaneous battery fires are insanely uncommon when you’re using well made, well tested, reliable battery technology with good safety protections. Tesla is batting 0 for 4 there. Miss any of those four and your chances of fire increase exponentially. Miss ALL four and it’s basically guaranteed.

        America? Becoming fascist? That seems super, super impossible. Our current president, who dresses like an orange, and is a convicted felon and sexual molester, would never allow something so heinous. He works so hard for us. Did you see the great job he did raising the price of eggs? If that’s not love, I don’t know what is.
