    Look at this article

    The driver of a Tesla Model X died on 23 march, after his vehicle had caught on fire.

    While traveling on highway 101 in California, this électromobiliste was hit head-on a wall of security. Following the impact, the Tesla Model X has rapidly become the prey of the flames.

    A team of engineers from Tesla visited the site to give a blow to the firefighters as they worked to manipulate the batteries.

    As you can see by looking at the photos, the front part of the Tesla Model X has been completely destroyed. It is not known if this was caused by the force of the impact, the flames, or by the work of the fire department.

    Of course, due to the presence of batteries, an electric vehicle does not react in the same way that a petrol vehicle in the event of impact. As in other similar incidents have occurred in the past, the safety of this type of vehicle is in question.

    The driver was transported by ambulance to the hospital before succumbing to his injuries.

    Although the findings of the investigation have not been disclosed, suggests that it would be a failure of the driving system autonomous Autopilot. The National Transportation Safety Board has dispatched a team of experts to investigate this fatal accident.

    Tesla is also losing

    Because of a multitude of factors, including the fatal accident in which is involved a Model X, you can read on Bloomberg that the action of Tesla fell by 8%. The 278$ that was worth the action on march 27, represented the trough of the deepest known by the manufacturer of electric vehicles over the last year.
