Two young people aged 17 and 18 were killed in a horror accident in Upper Austria on Sunday night. The two teenagers were burned in the electric car. The accident reinforces the myth that electric vehicles are more dangerous than combustion engines. Krone+ checked this assumption.
A look at the statistics of the Swiss insurance company AXA shows that drivers of electric cars cause 50 percent more collisions with damage to their own vehicle. This is mainly due to the powerful vehicles. Electric cars generally have more horsepower. “The more powerful the vehicle, the more often drivers cause damage to their own vehicles or those of third parties,” confirms Michael Pfäffli, head of accident research and prevention.
