I thought I was careful not to claim any stats. The only thing we know is that EV fires are less frequent but more intense.

Probably not much data out there because it's so infrequent. You are much more likely to die from collisions I imagine.

I think Teslas cast a dark halo in this area as well. Newer vehicles, but it wouldn't surprise me of their drivers carelessness mirrored their largest shareholder.

Its worth knowing and researching to reduce fire incidence, but combustion engines have bigger problems.

Tesla has sold nearly 8 million cars in total, with 3.5 million cars in 2023-2024 alone. There were 3.1 million Pintos ever produced in its 10 year run.

There are 27 fatalities linked to Pinto related fires and 83 related to Tesla fires according to your volunteer run source. The Pinto had a fatality for every 1 in 116,000 vehicles while Tesla, according to your source, has 1 in every 96,000. So the number of Tesla fire related fatalities does not "dwarf" the number of Pinto related fatalities. On top of that, a key difference is most of the Pinto fatalities were due to rear end collisions with no fault of the driver while Tesla's are much higher performance vehicles getting involved in high energy collisions due to driver (autonomous and human) errors.

Here is a list giving a different view of fatal accidents by car model. To quote the article:

“Most of these vehicles received excellent safety ratings, performing well in crash tests at the IIHS and NHTSA, so it’s not a vehicle design issue,” said Brauer. “The models on this list likely reflect a combination of driver behavior and driving conditions, leading to increased crashes and fatalities.”
