Missile shelling of Ukraine: Tesla's car dealership, media (video) caught fire in Kiev

The published footage shows that tanks with fuel were caught near the show. This is not an official car dealership of the American manufacturer, because the Tesla brand is not represented in Ukraine. As a result of a massive missile shelling of Kyiv, two car dealers were injured on January 2, one of which sells Tesla electric vehicles. Cars could be affected by the impact. This is stated in the story of the Kyiv24 channel.

The exact location of the car dealership is not disclosed, but it is known that one of the Tesla shows is located in the Obolon district of the capital. This is not an official car dealership of the American manufacturer, because the Tesla brand is not represented in Ukraine. In addition, tanks with fuel were caught near the car dealership. In Kiev, there is a heavy smoke due to a fire, so residents are advised not to go outside, close the windows and drink plenty of water.

It should be noted that the fires of electric vehicles are very difficult to extinguish, because lithium-ion batteries emit a huge amount of oxygen during combustion, which raises the temperature of the flame to approximately 2500 degrees Celsius. The extinguishing of the electric car requires a lot of water and, as a rule, cars are burned completely and are not recoverable. For example, Tesla Model Y Electrocurser has recently caught fire in the United States after an accident.
