Only seen snippets, but it appears to be a fairly large crash, from which he largely appears ok.

Get well soon hamster!

oh so you can burn to death in an electric car too, fab, there's progress for you

They're having to train the rescue services in how to deal with crashed electric cars... high voltages, and risk of lithium fires that can't be put out by conventional extinguishers.

I still fancy owning an electric car though...

might be safer having a car run on thermite
