Abstract :
Fully electric vehicles are being introduced to the passenger car market in addition to the already popular hybrid vehicles. There are existing and proposed standards for the design of these vehicles to reduce the risk of occupants and rescue personnel being exposed to hazards such as corrosive chemicals, toxic fumes, fire and electric shock in the event of a crash. Some manufacturers are understood rescue organisations to develop appropriate procedures for dealing with these crashes.
