Summary
A fire at a Tesla dealership in Rome’s Torre Angela district early Monday destroyed 17 cars and damaged the building. No injuries were reported, but investigators are exploring multiple causes, including arson.
The incident follows recent Tesla vandalism in Rome amid rising backlash against Elon Musk’s leadership and cost-cutting at DOGE.
Tesla has faced arson, protests, and boycott calls across the US and Europe.
The company’s stock fell 5% Monday, down 34% this year, with sales dropping sharply in both the US and Europe.

I didn’t see nuffin
The entirety of Rome was with me that night so they couldn’t have done it.
Expect more of this.
Prolly just a mistake. Maybe left them charging too long?
👏
Did anyone bring a fiddle?

Why would the WOKE libs do this?
Oh this in Rome? Do they have woke libs?
Oh so sorry to hear about your Swasticars that passed away. Here’s five big booms.
Don’t worry. It’s what

maybe it was Nero?
Rome fiddled while Tesla burned. :)
Damn teslas are really explody
A charged Li-Ion battery aflame is no joke, as we saw when it was the Galaxy Note 7. It’s a major concern for EVs catching fire in tunnels, parking garages, and ferries. They are SUPER HARD to extinguish- legacy techniques don’t really work.
Another example: In August of 2012, an explosion and fire occurred in one of the lithium-polymer batteries on the Foss hybrid tug CAMPBELL FOSS. - the reinstallation report

Bro new fear unlocked. Burning TSLA on a ferry. Fuck me.
I vaguely recall a story from a year or two about one of those giant ocean-crossing car carriers that had an EV on board catch fire. Something like 500 of the 4000 cars on board were EV’s. I think they ultimately saved about 1000 of those cars after the fire was put out.
Edit: easy find…

The fire’s origin was eventually traced to the eighth deck of the 12-deck ship, far from the electric vehicle storage areas.
Ahhhh, thanks… i guess. Gruesome details yay.

And non of the EV were involved in the fire.
During/after the recent LA fires, they spraypainted “NOT EV” on all of the ICE vehicles

Thank god, ol’ smarty Musky built a tunnel with no safety features for all those Teslas.

You. Could. Not. Pay me…To get into that stupid friggin’ tunnel. How on earth did that thing actually get built?!
The flooding potential is bad enough, but otherwise, it’s not a matter of “if” people are gonna die horribly of fire or toxic inhalation in a confined concrete space with no escape, it’s absolutely “when.”
Ol’ smrty Musky won’t be blamed for the tragic accident. It would be some helpless fall person or Las Vegas.
Smrty Musky can’t be blamed for this.
