Electric cars; The rapid development of lithium-ion battery technology has dramatically changed the automobile industry worldwide in recent years. The fact that the number of electric cars has increased considerably today also increases the probability of being involved in traffic accidents. The most important problem that we encounter as a result of traffic accidents is automobile fires. In this study, the structure of electric cars is analyzed. The types of batteries used are examined and information about battery types is given. Fire risks in electric cars are being evaluated.
