I think everyone who buys Tesla should be aware that lithium-ion batteries are way more flammable than gasoline.
I read the biography of Elon by Ashlee Vance, and as the book says, there was some party, with Elon and his investors or workers i cant really remember, few years back when they developed prototype, when they decided to burn the car intentionally just to see what will happen. And they were stunned how that thing burns, and since it was just a prototype it had significantly less batteries inside. So they spent a lot of time and money developing system in which fire wont be able to spread from one battery cell to another. But obviously it is still a major issue.
