I know the Fire Extinguisher is a long time racing heritage thing with Porsche like the ignition being on the "left" near the door for entry speed during a race…so they include it because it's an option on all their vehicles…
but honestly given what we know about EV's and the rare case of EV fires - I'm thinking this is mostly pointless in the context of an EV -electrical fires and LiON fires in particular are completely different animals than the sorts of fires that occur with ICE's....
and the capacity of this has got to be laughable vs. what I know about EV's fires which is they are very very hard to extinguish and are the ultimate example of a slow-long-burn…
has anyone spec'd this on their build? and do we honestly believe it would ever make a difference in the context of an EV?
