Sometimes Scotty gets a little overdramatic. But he doesn’t pull any punches. If he hates something, he’ll tell you. And he’ll be specific. He’ll name names.
Scotty has a great channel - very enjoyable presentation.
Insurers have little choice because you cannot see into the battery pack so you don’t know what kind of damage was done even in a minor accident. IF they insure your EV they likely insure your home so they can pay a body shop to fix the damage and then weeks or months later it catches fire and takes out your home (much bigger payout by insurance) OR they can simply total out the car and cut their losses.
A big problem for the EV industry, EV owners, and for insurance companies and there do not appear to be any good answers (for them).
Yes he does. And I have been saying this for a long time. If you get in a minor fender bender that would not impact a combustion engine, you could ruin an electric car and pay $20,000 to replace the battery pack. Makes no sense.

I looked up the battery replacement and it is $2,000 to $8,000. This is for a far smaller battery then full electric.
