Another nail has been hammered into the coffin of liberals’ beloved EVs:

Matson Inc., a major ocean cargo carrier in the trans-Pacific trade, announced this week that they have decided to stop carrying electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles on their ships, effective immediately.

They have good reason:

[T]here have been three especially severe EV fires on cargo ships in just the past three years: the Felicity Ace in 2022, the Fremantle Highway in 2023, and most recently, the Morning Midas in 2025, each fire destroying thousands of vehicles each along with much or all of the vessels.

Crew has been killed in these fire. Entire ships along with their cargo have been lost.

Real cars burst into flames too — but only due to collision or arson, not virtually spontaneously, on mere exposure to water.

Worse, once an electric car’s massive lithium battery catches fire, that fire is often impossible to put out; these vehicles burn for days, consuming not just the car but everything nearby, from parking garage to cargo ship.

For obvious reasons, cars need to be water resistant. Since EVs are not, they are unsafe — in addition to being more expensive, less reliable, inefficient, inconvenient to charge, unhealthy, and worse for the environment. To sum up, they are inferior in every way.

Electric cars were the future, when Democrats were in a position to impose them by force. But they aren’t the future anymore.
