Possibly. I don’t follow automakers generally, but I really wonder if you can be worse than cars with batteries that spontaneously combust while parked, or cars with batteries that are entirely unshielded and placed lower than the axel and fenders, making it the first thing to be hit by any debris on the road.
Considering that Brexit got through and that’s exactly what’s happening in the UK (amongst countless other problems), don’t bet against them trying something stupid like this (regardless of when or who’s in power).
