@anemone Even without plastic explosives, just the battery alone could do a bunch of damage.

The average EV battery can hold around 230000kJ of energy, which is just the energy that can be discharged via regular use. this is around 50kg of TNT.

Theres also the chemical potential the battery holds, which is often 20-30 times this amount... (dispose of batteries safely kids) Basically, 1000Kg of TNT if we take the lower conversion

1Tonne is still ample to level some buildings (2 Tomohawk missiles)

Im not a electro-chemical engineer, but id rather stand next to a petrol engine than an electric one
